Samsung boosts non-memory chip investment to $151 billion as South Korea offers bigger tax breaks

Live Mint  

Samsung Electronics on Thursday raised its planned investment in non-memory chips to 171 trillion won through 2030, joining a rush of firms ramping up investments amid a global semiconductor shortage. South Korea on Thursday said it would offer bigger tax breaks plus 1 trillion won in loans for its local chip industry. "Countries around the world have entered fierce competition by reorganising supply chains around their own country," South Korean President Moon Jae-in said Thursday at Samsung's chip site at Pyeongtaek. South Korea will increase tax breaks to 6% from the current 3% or lower for capital expenditures between second half of 2021 to 2024 for large corporations conducting "key strategic technology" including semiconductors, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy said in a statement. "Setting up an environment where smaller fabless firms can thrive, with plenty of workforce and foundries, would naturally bolster system chip industry," said Jinwook Burm, head of the Institute of Semiconductor Engineers.
