A sustained rise above 1300 by end-June. * South Korean government announces restrictive measures on capital flows. This could include increased reserve requirements or limitations on foreign currency transactions. Scenario B (Status Quo) — 38% The won's performance remains relatively s (54% model probability, not a guarantee)
