[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] The Financial Supervisory Service is investigating whether Hi Investment & Securities, an affiliate of DGB Financial Group, engaged in unfair business practices during real estate project financing (PF).
According to the financial industry on the 17th, Hi Investment & Securities is suspected of forcing company A to invest 3 billion won in the final investment product of Yulgok Medical Center in Gimcheon Innovation City in June last year. Company A invested 3 billion won in Hi Investment & Securities to get a bridge loan for an apartment building in Songna-gu, Dongducheon, even though it knew the business feasibility of the Gimcheon business was low.
The Financial Supervisory Service is currently conducting a pre-written inspection.
"In addition to the case, there are more serious things regarding the real estate PF conducted by Hi Investment & Securities, so we will examine it," a Financial Supervisory Service official said. "We cannot go to the scene and inspect it and predict it until it is over." "There are many things to consider, such as whether the problem of Hi Investment & Securities is at the level of a major shareholder (DGB Financial Group) or a deviation of its affiliates or executives and employees," he said.
Hi Investment & Securities explained that it is not a defeat, citing that the A company invested with full knowledge of the risks of the Gimcheon plant and that the 3 billion won investment and the 40 billion won bridge loan made at the Gimcheon plant have a time difference of two months.
