KB Kookmin Bank and Korea Citibank Open Joint Branch in Daejeon

KB Kookmin Bank announced on the 21st that it will open a joint branch with Citibank Korea in Dunsan-dong, Seo-gu, Daejeon.

This joint branch will operate as a new type of floor-separated joint branch, with KB Kookmin Bank occupying the second-floor space previously used by Citibank Korea's Daejeon Central Branch. Existing Citibank Korea customers who wish to use KB Kookmin Bank can move smoothly between the banks via an internal staircase during business hours and can transfer their banking transactions. The joint branch mainly provides financial services such as new savings and deposit accounts, subscription to financial investment products, and loan applications. Operating hours are from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Citibank Korea customers starting transactions with KB Kookmin Bank can receive the same level of benefits as they did at Citibank Korea, even if they have no prior transaction history with KB Kookmin Bank. For example, when opening the 'KB Star Plus Account,' a deposit and withdrawal account, customers can receive a total of 15 types of fee waiver benefits without conditions or limits on the number of times, and can also receive fund and bancassurance transfers and post-management services.

Meanwhile, KB Kookmin Bank operates joint branches in various locations. In May last year, it opened joint branches with Shinhan Bank in Yangju, Gyeonggi Province, and Yeongju, Gyeongsangbuk Province, and in September of the same year, it opened a joint branch with BNK Busan Bank in Geumgok-dong. A KB Kookmin Bank official said, "We are continuously striving to improve face-to-face channel accessibility for customers in areas with a shortage of commercial bank branches."
