[Asia Economy Reporter Minwoo Lee] Shinhan Financial Investment donated 200 million KRW to help overcome the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the Daegu Gyeongbuk region.

On the 16th, Shinhan Financial Investment announced that the company and its employees collectively raised this amount for the donation. Shinhan Financial Investment participated in the social donation project "Hop Together with Shinhan," a crowdfunding campaign jointly organized by Shinhan Financial Group and Wadiz. Employees also voluntarily contributed a portion of their salaries through the "MoaMoaHappy" program. Additionally, to share the suffering of local medical staff, the elderly, children, and other vulnerable groups, they are providing medical staff health kits and food kits for the underprivileged in cooperation with the Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association.
