Mirae Asset Securities Company is a member of Mirae Asset Financial Group. The Group, led by founder Park Hyeon Joo, gained success originally from combining a low-risk mutual fund product targeted for low-risk-taking Korean middle class, who traditional invested their money in savings accounts rather than in the equity markets. This mutual fund had a built in sharebuilder-type system of contributing a set amount for a certain period of time. This is taking advantage of both the financial expertise of professionals who managed the fund and Korean's desire to earn more than savings percentages. Mirae Asset Securities has four basic financial products: Wealth Management, Investment Banking, Pension Retirement and Brokerage Services. It currently has offices around the globe in 11 countries.

In 2008, even when the Euro-zone economy was realizing steep on balance sheet contributions to valueless mortgage backed securities, it was able to attract successful European financial business developer Elliott Berman to work for them. Mirae made bolder fores in 2008. It won qualified foreign institutional investor (QFII) license from the China Securities Regulatory Commission. This license allows Mirae to invest in RMB-denominated stocks and bonds in China. And it opened a rupee-based fixed-income fund.

In October of 2008, Mirae lost the title of being the top asset manager for South Korea to Samsung Asset Management. The rivals have been switching back and forth on the top position for several years. Mirae is known for navigating investors through the equity markets. But due to the increased volatility of the equity markets, investors pulled money out of Mirae and invested in money market funds at Samsung. At the same time, JP Morgan downgraded Mirae from underweight to oveweight.

Mirae is not always an optimist. in September 2008, while it was opening various currency funds and had the great success of attracting financial business developer, Elliott Berman, onto its staff, it cut China Guangzhou Shipyard International Co. Ltd to 6.97% from the previous 7.03%.
