We reported last week that the financial authorities are trying to hand over data of high-quality conglomerates traded by state-run banks to commercial banks.



This is the exclusive report by reporter Kim Jung-woo.

[Last 8th, SBS 8 News: This is an internal document recently prepared by the Financial Services Commission.

It contains a plan to hand over high-quality customers of state-run banks to private banks.] When



SBS reported last week, the FSC jumped up saying that it was not true, and the president of Korea Development Bank, the representative state-run bank, directly denied it.



[Kang Seok-hoon/Chairman of Korea Development Bank (Yesterday): I know from the media reports.

It is a story that has no substance within our industry.]



But in reality, preparations were in progress.



This is an internal document of the Korea Development Bank secured by the reporters.



We set up a scenario in which we could hand over operating assets worth up to 18.3 trillion won to private banks by selecting only the best companies with the highest credit ratings.



This is close to one-fifth of the 106 trillion won in normal loans excluding overseas assets.



The plan is to hand over loan information from a total of 226 companies, including Korea's top conglomerates such as SK Hynix, LG Chem, Hyundai Motor, and Samsung C&T.



The same thing is happening with the other state-run bank, Industrial Bank of Korea.



They were instructed to collect and report a list of net accounts and loan amounts to key banking departments.



Concerns are pouring in the financial and political circles about the insolvency of state-run banks.



[Kim Joo-young / Member of the Democratic Party: Can it be pursued unilaterally like this without other intentions?

If the state-run financial institutions fail to play their role, it will eventually have a greater adverse effect on the national economy.]



The plan of the Financial Services Commission to drive net loans to two commercial banks of their choosing is also controversial.



Foreign ownership of major commercial banks is 60-70%, and it is pointed out that if the information is leaked, it will be easy to operate and the national wealth will be leaked through dividends, etc.
