    Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) investigation – Appeal procedure update

    Another favourable decision for GTT


    Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse, May 18, 2021 – The favourable decision of the Seoul High Court suspending the KFTC decision dated November 25, 2020 was confirmed on May 14, 2021 by the Supreme Court of Korea, which rejected the appeal from the KFTC.

    As a result, GTT may maintain its current business practices without any change until a decision on the merits is made by the Seoul High Court. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate any significant financial or industrial impact resulting from the KFTC’s decision. Depending on the conclusions of the court appeal procedure, the Company will reassess the consequences on its activities.
