Moorim Capital

Moorim Capital was established in 2009 as the financial services arm of the Moorim Group. Lee Do-kyun, a third-generation family member, leads the parent company while Lim Jae-heon runs the capital unit. The firm concentrates on corporate loans, project financing, and mezzanine instruments. Confirmed holdings include convertible bonds, bonds with warrants, and equity stakes in Datumo, Aptabio, Shaperon, and Robocon, all located in South Korea. Geographic deployment remains limited to domestic opportunities. Moorim Capital maintains a headquarters in central Seoul that expanded in 2022. It belongs to CREFIA, the local credit finance association, and supports Moorim Group ESG programs focused on carbon reduction. Ownership structure ties the firm directly to Moorim P&P as majority shareholder, creating a captive capital vehicle rather than an independent allocator.
