  1. Here's an interesting quote from the head of the Korean stock exchange from a few days ago :- "“We will develop new indices, such as those covering high-dividend stocks or preferred shares, to widen the base for dividend-related investment,” he said without further elaboration. http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20140720000191 If the Korean authorities are successful in persuading listed companies to boost their dividend payouts this should make preferred shares more attractive relative to common shares. And if the KRX wants to highlight valuations of preferred shares that doesn't sound like a bad thing for those invested in them either.
  2. Charles Stanley are the only UK broker I've managed to find who will trade Korean stocks for a retail client. They are expensive but since I like to invest in tax wrappers like ISAs and SIPPs they seem my only choice. They also aren't open during Korean trading hours so the only way to trade is to leave a limit order during UK office hours.
  3. I don't think such a book exists. However you can get a list of all AIM stocks from the London Stock Exchange website here:- http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/companies-and-advisors/aim/for-companies/information-search/aim-company-search.html If you are looking at AIM stocks you will soon come across rule 26. This rule states that all companies on AIM must have a website and that website must include certain information of interest to investors. This includes a description of the business, the number of shares in issue and the most recent financial report. Most companies on AIM seem to be in compliance with this rule and often have a "rule 26" link on their investor relations page or home page. So while this isn't as convenient as having the information in one book you can find out the information you want from a combination of the LSE and the companies themselves.
