OK Savings Bank Launches 'e-Gukmin Pension Safe Account' for Non-Face-to-Face Enrollment

[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-seop] OK Savings Bank has launched a dedicated National Pension benefit account that can be opened non-face-to-face.

According to the financial sector on the 9th, the ‘OK e-National Pension Safety Account’ launched by OK Savings Bank is a non-face-to-face product of the ‘OK National Pension Safety Account.’ Previously, savings bank customers could only open National Pension benefit accounts at branches, but from now on, they can open them non-face-to-face. OK Savings Bank is the first to sell the National Pension Safety Account through a non-face-to-face channel.

The National Pension Safety Account is a deposit and withdrawal product that protects National Pension benefit rights under the National Pension Act, and only National Pension payments of 1.85 million KRW or less are deposited monthly. Regardless of the balance, bond seizure and payment restrictions do not occur, providing the advantage of securely protecting retirement financial assets.

To commemorate the launch of the non-face-to-face account, OK Savings Bank offers an interest rate benefit of up to 2.2% per annum, including a basic interest rate of 2.0% per annum and an additional preferential interest rate of 0.2 percentage points when registering for open banking, limited to the first 1,000 accounts. Eligible applicants are National Pension beneficiaries under the National Pension Act.

An OK Savings Bank official explained, “In the era of digital finance, we have expanded the subscription channel to non-face-to-face so that National Pension beneficiaries can conveniently subscribe to the National Pension Safety Account.”
