[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Financial authorities are expected to look into the governance structure of DGB Financial Group in all directions.
According to the financial sector on the 9th, financial authorities are closely watching the controversies that have occurred in DGB finance.
DGB Financial Group, which emerged as a representative of bank reform three months ago, has become a target of criticism by financial authorities as it has been under fire for various financial accidents and controversies.
In July, the financial authorities decided to convert DGB Financial's Daegu Bank into a commercial bank to resolve the oligopoly system centered on the existing five major banks. Daegu Bank also said it will push for the conversion of commercial banks within the year.
But about a month later, Daegu Bank's massive irregularities will come to the surface, making it a "catfish" for the banking sector The goal of Dun Daegu Bank has been overshadowed. Daegu Bank is suspected of arbitrarily opening more than 1,000 additional deposit-linked securities accounts without customer consent for performance.
The Financial Supervisory Service is conducting an intensive inspection of Daegu Bank. The inspection is expected to expand not only to Daegu Bank but also to DGB Financial Group. For example, the Financial Supervisory Service identified the BNK Financial Group's poor internal control over the embezzlement of Kyongnam Bank as the cause and warned of severe sanctions.
On top of that, with the recent controversy over DGB Financial Group Chairman Kim Tae-oh's second term, chances are growing that the financial authorities will look into the overall governance structure of DGB Financial.
