PROFILE |
 |
One of South Korea's major financial institutions, Shinhan Bank offers retail, corporate, and international banking services. Shinhan Bank was the first South Korean bank to provide online banking to its customers, and it intends to expand its "Ez-Bank" Web site to include online stock trading and insurance services. The bank has more than 300 domestic and overseas branches, most of which specialize in retail banking. Shinhan Bank is being pursued for a merger by other major Asian banks (encouraged by the South Korean government) but has stressed its desire to remain independent. The bank is restructuring itself as a financial holding company to manage its banking, insurance, investment, and securities units.
