[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Min-young] Kim Jung-tae, Chairman of Hana Financial Group, urged on the 1st, "Become key talents leading the non-face-to-face and digital-centered changes that are accelerating due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), enhance your own value, and lead the development of the group."

Chairman Kim made these remarks while attending the 30th anniversary founding ceremony of Hana Financial TI, Hana Financial Group's IT-specialized affiliate. The ceremony, held at Hana Bank's Euljiro headquarters under the name "Thirty-Year Online Birthday Party," was conducted as a non-face-to-face online event due to the impact of COVID-19.

At the ceremony, Chairman Kim and Yoo Si-wan, President of Hana Financial TI, celebrated the 30th anniversary and communicated with about 1,000 Hana Financial TI executives and employees, including thirty employees participating via video call, through real-time online streaming.

On this 30th anniversary, Chairman Kim had an open and candid conversation with employees who joined the ceremony via video from various locations, including employees who turned thirty and those participating from home with their children while working remotely. He shared sincere experiences ranging from personal stories such as worries in their thirties and memories with employees to the value of 'humanity' and Hana Financial Group's vision for the next ten years, communicating without formality.

In particular, Chairman Kim, who has always emphasized the importance of IT in finance, said, "I hope Hana Financial TI employees become key talents leading the non-face-to-face and digital-centered changes that are accelerating due to COVID-19."

Meanwhile, to commemorate the 30th anniversary more meaningfully, Hana Financial TI held a 'Everyone's Market' bazaar with donated items from executives and employees, donating all proceeds. The donation will be used to support vulnerable groups and marginalized neighbors in the Incheon community, including Cheongna International City, where Hana Financial Town, including the Hana Financial Group Integrated Data Center and Hana Global Campus, is located.
