Dongyang Life and ABL Life, subsidiaries of Woori Financial Group, are accelerating preparations for their upcoming merger by conducting artificial intelligence (AI) training for their executives.
On September 1, the two companies held an 'AI Agent Creation Practical Training' session at Dongyang Life's headquarters in Jongno-gu, Seoul, attended by 30 executives from both firms.
The training was designed to enhance the AI capabilities of the management team ahead of the transition to an 'AI Native' integrated company. It involved not only learning about AI technologies and trends but also required executives to design and implement AI agents and identify tasks for applying them in their respective roles.
This training is particularly significant as it translates the AI-based business innovation direction presented at the '2026 Second Half Leaders Change and Innovation Forum' held by Dongyang Life in July into actionable steps. During that forum, discussions covered AI application strategies across all sectors, including sales and products, investment and finance, risk management, IT, operations, and consumer protection.
The two companies plan to establish an environment where AI can be integrated into daily operations to enhance the efficiency of the merged entity.
A Dongyang Life official stated, "The future AI competitiveness of the integrated company will depend more on how quickly our members can adapt their work processes to utilize AI effectively, rather than just on the number of new technologies adopted. We will continue to identify and expand practical AI use cases across all operations."
