According to an analysis by corporate watcher CEO Score showed South Korea's top 30 business groups invested USD20.06 billion during the first quarter, 9 percent higher than the same period a year ago.
The increase was mainly attributed to a handful of top firms, pointing to a growing imbalance between big and smaller companies.
