On December 9, Shinhan Financial Group announced that it held a meeting with Jamshid Khojayev, Deputy Prime Minister of Uzbekistan, and his delegation at Lotte Hotel in Jung-gu, Seoul, to discuss ways to enhance financial cooperation and friendship between the two countries.

The Uzbek delegation visited Korea to promote the expansion of Korean companies into Uzbekistan and to strengthen the strategic partnership between the two countries. In particular, they attended the "Korea-Uzbekistan Business Roundtable" held earlier that morning, where they discussed a variety of cooperation agendas with the Chairman of the Korea International Trade Association, the First Vice Minister of Economy and Finance, and representatives of Korean companies operating in Uzbekistan.

Chairman Jin Okdong had previously met with financial authorities from major Central Asian countries, including Uzbekistan, in April to hear about the development direction of the local financial industry. In this latest meeting, he once again expressed deep interest in Uzbekistan's high growth potential and the prospects for its dynamic financial market.

Chairman Jin and the Uzbek delegation discussed a range of topics, including the advancement of local financial infrastructure and strengthening financial support for the expansion of Korean companies into Uzbekistan. They agreed to further solidify their cooperative relationship based on mutual trust.

Chairman Jin Okdong stated, "I hope this meeting will further advance the friendly relationship between our two countries and serve as an important opportunity to broaden the scope of practical cooperation through finance. Shinhan Financial Group will continue to pursue various collaborative initiatives that contribute to and create shared growth with local communities, focusing on the significant development potential of Uzbekistan and Central Asia."
