The Korea Federation of Savings Banks announced that it signed a comprehensive business agreement for linked investments between savings banks and online investment-linked finance companies, holding the signing ceremony on the 19th.


Previously, on July 24 last year, the Financial Services Commission designated linked investments between savings banks and online investment-linked finance companies as an innovative financial service.


This financial service involves savings banks providing the necessary funds for personal borrower credit loans recruited and screened by online investment-linked finance companies.


The Federation and the online investment-linked finance companies signed the agreement to promote cooperation such as establishing linked investment business methods, developing and operating IT systems, and sharing information.


The Federation expects that combining the credit evaluation technology of online investment-linked finance companies with the savings banks’ know-how in microfinance and financial capacity will help increase personal credit loans for low- to medium-credit borrowers.


Investing savings banks are also expected to secure new business channels.


Oh Hwa-kyung, Chairman of the Federation, said, "This is the first financial service implemented with the participation of 29 savings banks and 5 online investment-linked finance companies," and urged, "Let us work closely together to ensure more financial supply to financially vulnerable groups."



The service plans to complete the development of the linked investment system by the end of this month and will be gradually implemented from next month through individual contracts with 34 companies.
