The Chairman Candidate Recommendation Committee conducted an in-depth interview with the final candidates (short list), including Chairman Kim, Sung-Hoon Lim, President of Daegu Bank, and Koo-Hyun Yoo, former CEO of Woori Card, and made this decision.

Chairman Kim was recognized for diversifying the group’s profit structure by securing the foundation for future growth by accelerating digital and global business and successfully acquiring Hi Investment & Securities. Chairman Kim is scheduled to be re-elected as chairman at the regular shareholders’ meeting next March.

An official from the committee said, “We expect that Chairman Kim, who has led the DGB Financial Group stably and clearly presented the future vision, will respond well to the uncertainty of the post-corona era.”

Chairman Tae-Oh Kim, a former KEB and former vice president of Hana Bank and CEO of Hana HSBC Life Insurance (now Hana Life Insurance), was elected Chairman of DGB Finance in May 2018. From January last year to October 7 this year, he also served as the president of Daegu Bank.
