首尔，10月2日：SK集团会长崔泰源将出售SK集团2.26%的股份，价值约9440亿韩元（6.995亿美元），以支付离婚和解款项。
SEOUL, Oct 2 : SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won will sell a 2.26 per cent stake in SK Corp for about 944 billion won ($699.5 million) to fund a divorce settlement, though he will remain the top shareholder of the holding firm of the South Korean conglomerate, the company said on Friday.
尽管他仍将是这家韩国财阀控股公司的最大股东，但公司周五表示，此次出售将于11月2日开始，距离韩国法院在具有里程碑意义的离婚案中裁定崔泰源向前妻卢素英支付9440亿韩元仅过去两个月。
当时分析师指出，这一裁决可能迫使他通过借款、出售资产或处置股份来筹集资金。
The sale, which is due to begin on November 2, comes about two months after a South Korean court ordered Chey to pay 944 billion won to former spouse Roh Soh-yeong in a landmark divorce case, an award that analysts said at the time could force him to raise funds through borrowing, asset sales or share disposals.
尽管远低于2024年上诉法院裁定的1.38万亿韩元和解金额，但支付给卢素英的现金赔偿在韩国仍创下了纪录。
The cash award to Roh is a record for South Korea, even though substantially lower than a settlement of 1.38 trillion won ordered by the appeals court in 2024.
根据SK集团的监管文件，出售完成后，崔泰源仍将以15.49%的股份持有量保持SK集团最大股东的地位，SK集团是旗下旗舰芯片制造商SK海力士的控股公司。
After the sale, Chey will remain the biggest shareholder in SK Corp, the holding firm of the group's flagship chipmaker SK Hynix, with a 15.49 per cent stake, according to SK's regulatory filing.
