Yoon Hee-sung, the president of The Export-Import Bank of Korea, who will conclude his term on the 26th, reflected that he contributed to enhancing the global competitiveness of domestic corporations through the increase of the bank's legal capital and the launch of a supply chain stabilization fund.

In a speech on the 10th, President Yoon said, "Over the years, the bank has increased its legal capital to 25 trillion won, laying the foundation for sustainable policy financing," and added, "We are successfully launching the supply chain stabilization fund, contributing to further enhancing the global competitiveness of domestic corporations."

He continued, "We have laid the groundwork for our leap as an external economic cooperation bank by introducing development finance," and noted, "Recently, we established a Global Capital Market Headquarters to grow capital market operations as a new pillar of policy financing and completed the construction of an independent IT center to accelerate the bank's digital transformation."

He stated, "Even if I step down, the bank will continue to strive to provide better services based on trust with you as an international cooperation bank," and requested, "I ask for your continued interest and effort."

President Yoon was the first internal appointment since the bank's establishment. If a successor is not decided before the 26th, former Executive Director Ahn Jong-hyuk (senior vice president) will serve as acting president.
