Daegu Bank, which announced its transition to a commercial bank last month.
<Hwang Byung-woo/President of Daegu Bank (6th of last month)> “It is expected that Daegu Bank’s sustainable competitiveness will be significantly strengthened by the transition to a commercial bank.”

voices criticizing bankers’ moral hazard are growing.
