Corporate Responsibility

MESSAGE FROM THE CEO

From our very beginnings, we have been committed to being a responsible corporate citizen for our customers and communities. Today, as the representative bank of the Korean American community and one of the largest regional Asian American banks in the nation, we stand proud as a diversified financial institution focused on a broad base of industries, with a conservatively managed balance sheet, robust capital position, ample liquidity, and strong asset quality. And we are fully cognizant of the important role we play in continuing to create a socially responsible and sustainable future.
