Hana Financial Group Launches Cheongna Headquarters, Opening a New Era

Hana Financial Group held an opening ceremony for its Cheongna headquarters, officially announcing the completion of Hana Financial Town, a project that has been in development for 15 years.

On October 2, Hana Financial hosted the event in Incheon, themed "One Heart, Opening the Future." Attendees included Incheon Mayor Park Chan-dae and Hana Financial Group Chairman Ham Young-joo, along with other dignitaries and group employees.

Chairman Ham stated, "The opening of the Cheongna headquarters is the culmination of the Hana Financial Town project and the starting point for a major transformation that unites the capabilities of all group companies and employees in one direction. We will open a new 100 years for Hana Financial Group through bold challenges and continuous innovation."

Mayor Park emphasized in his speech, "Despite the changing financial environment and economic conditions, Hana Financial has kept its promises. Now, Hana Financial is an Incheon company."

Since 2012, Hana Financial has been developing Hana Financial Town in Incheon’s Cheongna International City. Following the establishment of a unified data center in 2017 and the Hana Global Campus in 2019, the opening of the Cheongna headquarters this year marks the completion of the financial town project.

The Cheongna headquarters spans seven underground floors and 15 above ground, with a total floor area of approximately 128,000 square meters. Since last month, about 2,200 employees from Hana Financial Holdings and its ten major affiliates have been relocating to the new headquarters. Including staff from the existing unified data center, the total number of finance and IT personnel working in Cheongna is expected to reach around 4,000.

Hana Financial plans to leverage the business capabilities of its financial affiliates and the IT infrastructure of the unified data center to accelerate digital innovation, including artificial intelligence transformation (AX). The group aims to expand collaboration between finance and technology to discover new financial services and future growth drivers.
