Hana Financial Group announced Monday that it had nominated Hana Bank vice president Ham Young-joo as the sole candidate to become the first KEB Hana Bank president.
The financial authorities approved the banking group’s plan to merge Hana Bank and Korea Exchange Bank last week.
Group officials said Ham was nominated by KEB Hana Bank’s executive nomination committee and has already been approved by the board of directors.
He will be inaugurated as the new president if the nomination is approved at the shareholders meeting on Sept. 1.
