BNK Financial Group Confirms CEO Candidates for Major Subsidiaries

BNK Financial Group's major subsidiaries, Busan Bank, Gyeongnam Bank, and BNK Capital, consecutively held the Executive Candidate Recommendation Committee (Nomination Committee) and board meetings to recommend and finalize the final CEO candidates.

The nomination committees of these three subsidiaries initiated the CEO succession process starting January 30, as the current CEOs' terms were approaching expiration.

They comprehensively evaluated the candidates' expertise and management performance capabilities through document screening, presentation evaluation, and interview processes, also considering the reputation checks from external advisory agencies before recommending the CEO candidates.

At the board meetings held after the nomination committees concluded, the reasons for recommending the CEO candidates were agreed upon, confirming the next CEO candidates.

Following the earlier retirement decisions of Busan Bank President An Gam-chan and BNK Capital CEO Lee Doo-ho, Gyeongnam Bank President Choi Hong-young also decided to retire to open the way for capable juniors to grow for the bank's change and future.

Accordingly, Busan Bank confirmed candidate Bang Seong-bin, Gyeongnam Bank confirmed candidate Ye Kyung-tak, and BNK Capital confirmed candidate Kim Seong-joo as the new CEO candidates.

These CEO candidates are scheduled to be appointed as inside directors and representatives at each subsidiary's shareholders' meeting in March and will begin their terms on April 1.
