PROFILE |
 |
If you've got a few trillion won to spare, "Hanvit" over. Formed by the merger of Hanil Bank and Commercial Bank of Korea, Hanvit Bank is one of South Korea's biggest -- and one of its biggest losers. Bad loans have hammered the company's bottom line; it had the largest amount of bad loans among South Korea's commercial banks in 1999. Through attrition and branch closures (Hanvit went from about 900 to 700 offices worldwide), Hanvit -- whose name means "leading light" -- hopes to be the guide other banks follow as it strives towards profitability in an increasingly global financial market. The South Korean government owns about 75% of the bank and has given it an infusion of capital to aid its restructuring.
