Daishin Securities, a 'Jongtusa', reorganizes IB division... Strengthening acquisition finance capabilities

Daishin Securities has been designated as a comprehensive financial investment business operator and will engage in acquisition financing that provides corporate loans.

Daishin Securities announced on the 18th that it has established an M&A and acquisition financing division under its IB (Investment Banking) sector and appointed Executive Director Lee Jung-heon, formerly of DS Investment Securities, as the head of the division.

At the end of last year, Daishin Securities was designated as a comprehensive financial investment business operator, enabling it to provide credit to corporations.

With trillion-won scale M&A (mergers and acquisitions) big deals expected this year, demand for acquisition financing is anticipated to grow. Accordingly, the company plans to actively target the market by establishing a new division and recruiting experts.

Executive Director Lee Jung-heon, who joined Daishin Securities, is an acquisition financing expert who has overseen acquisition financing, corporate loans, and M&A advisory services at Woori Investment & Securities and Korea Investment & Securities. He later served as head of the IB3 division at Korea Investment & Securities, head of the Investment Finance division at Shinhan Investment Corp., and head of the IB division at DS Investment Securities.

At his inauguration ceremony, Executive Director Lee stated, "Based on over 15 years of experience in acquisition financing, I will provide competitive and innovative corporate financial services that keep pace with market changes," adding, "Acquisition financing is an area that creates synergy with various IB products, and I will contribute to the growth of Daishin Securities' IB division."
