KEB, a unit of Hana Financial Group, has won an award for the best foreign exchange bank in Korea from a Hong Kong-based magazine, bank officials said on Sunday.

FinanceAsia held the award ceremony over the weekend to hand KEB the Best Foreign Exchange Bank in Korea prize. The bank topped the list for the segment among Korean financial firms for the sixth consecutive year.

“Despite the fierce competition with other banks, we, as a bank specializing in foreign currency, will lead the market with new products that appeal to fluctuating demands,” said a bank spokesman.

KEB chief executive Yun Yong-ro has pledged that the bank would put in its best efforts to leap as a global bank by gaining a firm foothold both in and out of the country through differentiated products and services.
