Official Activities Begin from April 1

BNK Gyeongnam Bank announced on the 28th that Executive Vice President Ye Gyeong-tak has been recommended and confirmed as the 15th bank president.


Among the two final candidates, Bank President Choi Hong-young decided to voluntarily step down for the future of the organization and generational change despite achieving the highest performance in history. As a result, Executive Vice President Ye, the sole candidate, was recommended by the Executive Candidate Recommendation Committee after presentations and in-depth interviews, confirmed by the board of directors, and will be officially appointed in March following the shareholders' meeting.


Born in 1966, Executive Vice President Ye Gyeong-tak graduated from Miryang High School and Pusan National University (Department of Sociology), and completed a master's degree in Business Administration at Changwon National University.
