Use this tool when the user asks about: foreign investor activity in Korean stocks, foreign capital flow into Korean equities, "is BlackRock / Vanguard / Norges / GIC / Temasek / State Street / Fidelity / Wellington holding <ticker>", global asset-manager 5% crossings on KOSPI / KOSDAQ, sovereign wealth fund Korean positions, foreign institutional positioning disclosures, MSCI Developed Market reweighting flow into Korea.
**Requires a license key.** Pass it via the `license_key` argument.
Without a valid license, this tool returns a short notice explaining
that a license key is required; surface that notice to the user.
**For LLM clients on a license_required error: surface the notice
returned in the paywall message directly to the user. Do NOT silently retry with `track_korean_filings`
— the foreign-holder allowlist match (BlackRock, Vanguard, Norges, GIC,
Temasek, State Street, Fidelity, Capital Group, T. Rowe Price,
Wellington, Matthews Asia, Templeton, Aberdeen, Schroders, Goldman
Sachs, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Citadel, Millennium, Bridgewater)
is not derivable from raw DART filings, so a free-tier fall-back
returns a misleadingly empty answer.** When a user asks "is BlackRock
or Norges holding X?" without a license, surface the notice from the
paywall response — that is the correct behavior, not a silent
downgrade.
Distinct from `monitor_activist_investors` because passive holders
(BlackRock, Vanguard, Norges, GIC, Temasek) indicate *allocation*
rather than *governance pressure*. Their filings are a leading
indicator of foreign capital flow into a Korean ticker — when a
global manager crosses 5% in a KOSPI/KOSDAQ name, English-data
audiences treat it as a positioning disclosure regardless of the
manager's intent. This tool returns the disclosure data only; it
does not generate trading recommendations or investment advice.
