Hana Bank Opens Foreign Exchange Center

Hana Bank has launched the 'Foreign Exchange Capital Transaction Center' at Place1 in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, aiming to bolster its position as a specialized foreign exchange bank. This new facility focuses on sophisticated foreign exchange capital transactions, including foreign direct investment (FDI), overseas direct investment, and the purchase of overseas securities, as well as overseas emigration financing.

By leveraging the concentration of major law firms and accounting firms in the Gangnam area, the bank has assembled a team of experienced professionals and formed alliances with relevant institutions.

Visitors to the center can access services such as foreign exchange declaration counseling for domestic and international investments, real estate purchases, assistance with foreign direct investment declarations, and the opening of foreign currency accounts. Additionally, systematic consulting services like advice on foreign currency financing and cross-border capital transactions are available.

The center also provides tailored financial services for overseas emigrants and Korean nationals living abroad who are returning to their home country, covering the full emigration process from expense remittances and asset acquisitions to fund settlements upon return.

At the opening ceremony on August 11, Hana Bank President Lee Ho-sung was present, along with managing and partner attorneys from law firms Yulchon, Barun, Yoon & Yang, and DR & AJU. The officials unveiled the center and outlined collaboration strategies to boost foreign exchange capital transactions. President Lee Ho-sung highlighted the bank's ongoing commitment to enhancing its foreign exchange capabilities in response to the evolving global financial landscape, stating that the Foreign Exchange Capital Transaction Center will position Hana Bank as the leading, most trusted specialized foreign exchange bank for its customers.
