[Wonhwa Loan Rebalancing] ① KB Kookmin Bank selects top-tier companies... loans increase by 6 trillion won

KB Kookmin Bank rebalanced its won-loan portfolio in Q2 toward corporate lending, especially large companies and high-quality SMEs, rather than household loans.

As of late June, won loans rose by KRW 603.91 billion from end-March, with corporate loans accounting for KRW 429.42 billion of the increase.

Large-company loans led growth, up KRW 330.92 billion, while loans to individual business owners declined.

The bank said it will keep household-loan volume under control and continue targeting 6% to 7% annual growth in corporate lending in the second half.
