Three Korean banks moved on three fronts today — cross-border scale, payment speed, and financial crime detection.
KB Kookmin's Cambodian subsidiary, KB Prasac Bank, posted its strongest three-year deposit growth yet, reaching 4.2 trillion won in deposits and 5.2 trillion won in total loans. Hana Bank rolled out a new remittance service cutting US transfer times from 30 minutes to under one minute. Shinhan Bank is hiring specialists to upgrade its AI-based anti-money-laundering detection system. Together, the moves point to a Korean banking sector investing in overseas scale and faster, more automated compliance infrastructure.
