Samsung Group, South Korea's top family-owned conglomerate, said Wednesday that it will spend a record 43 trillion won (US$38.3 billion) in capital expenditures this year to cement its market dominance and speed up a search for new growth engines.
The figure represents an 18 percent increase from the 36.5 trillion won invested in new plants and equipment last year, according to the group.
