Hana Bank will host a seminar, Friday, on investing in real estate in the United States and opportunities to get a green card through such investment, the company announced on Tuesday.
The seminar will take place at Club1, the VIP member club of Hana Bank, in southern Seoul's Samseong-dong.
The seminar, according to the lender, comes as investors are increasingly interested in investments in U.S. real estate.
Many of them plan to emigrate to the U.S. permanently or study there, and want to capitalize on investment as a way to visualize the plan.
“We hope to show participants how they can diversify their portfolios and reduce investment risks at a time when the financial market is facing extreme turbulence,” the bank said in a press release.
The company underscores that it has years of experience in foreign currency-related investment and that it will “fully capitalize on its knowhow to offer qualify services for participants.”
