Hana Financial Group announced on July 24 that it has trained 54 young financial talents through its 'Hana Young Financial Talent Development Project' in collaboration with the Financial Supervisory Service.
The final performance sharing session for the project was held the previous day at Hana Bank's headquarters in Jung-gu, Seoul. Since its inception in 2022, the program has produced a total of 171 graduates.
This year, 54 participants from 13 university teams were selected through an idea competition held in April. Over four months, participants received training in finance, ESG education, consumer protection, and mentoring from industry experts.
Software training was divided into basic and advanced levels, covering financial data analysis, AI chatbots, generative AI, large language models (LLM), and machine learning. The program also facilitated one-on-one connections between Hana Financial employees and participant teams to develop practical solutions applicable in the field.
During the performance sharing session, the 'UniHana' team, which proposed a platform for corporate ESG regulatory compliance and risk assessment, won the grand prize and received a cash award of 10 million won. A total of 30 million won was awarded to seven teams, including two teams that received excellence awards and four teams that received merit awards.
The top three teams will have the opportunity to visit fintech companies in London and global financial institutions. All graduates will receive preferential treatment when applying for positions at Hana Financial Group in the future.
A representative from Hana Financial stated, “We hope that the talents developed through this project will grow into key drivers of financial innovation and that we will take the lead in nurturing talent so that young people can pursue their dreams without environmental constraints.”
