Inspection Commissioner (October. 1998 ~ March. 2001)  Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Act, KDIC became a member of Inspection Committee, which allowed the KDIC to supervise and manage bankruptcy estates to a certain extent.  The KDIC’s consent or approval must be obtained in order for the Receiver to proceed with asset disposition, to file a lawsuit, and to relinquish legal authorities. However, KDIC’s role was very limited in the field of active recovery  History of the Receivership in The Bank Failure
