[Asia Economy Reporter Jo Gang-wook] The Export-Import Bank of Korea announced that Bank President Bang Beom-gyu held a non-face-to-face town hall meeting with employees at the bank’s headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul, on the 2nd to mark his first anniversary in office.

The event was organized to address employees’ questions about bank management amid reduced face-to-face contact due to COVID-19.

Using webcams and mobile phones, about 30 young employees with around five years of service working at domestic headquarters and branches, as well as overseas subsidiaries and offices, participated in the town hall meeting.

During the two-hour meeting, questions were raised not only about current bank issues such as business plans, credit strategies, organizational restructuring, and personnel directions, but also about President Bang’s personal preferences, including favorite YouTube channels, Netflix series, ways to spend time at home, and fitness management tips.

An employee working at the New Delhi office in India said, "Working overseas, I am very curious about news from headquarters, and talking with the president helped a lot. It would be great if this could be regularized."

Another employee working at headquarters said, "With organizational restructuring and personnel changes coming at the end of the year, I had many questions, and it was good to hear explanations directly from the president. It was also a time to learn a lot about the president’s human side, which I had found difficult to understand."

President Bang said, "It was meaningful to confirm the interests and concerns of young employees through this new online communication space," adding, "I will continue to engage in candid communication in ways that employees want."
