KEB Hana Bank has launched a platform for customers who have retired to invest their pensions in various funds for management, the lender said Monday.
The bank said the platform marks the first of its kind in the market here.
On the platform, the customers can get the latest information on fund products and services, which include key functions that can recommend certain products in accordance with their needs.
The platform also offers financial news services, as well as one-on-one financial consultations with links to information on the National Pension Service, the National Tax Service and the Financial Supervisory Service.
This aims to provide them with greater details in regulations, the national pension service and tax issues concerning the elderly.
"The platform was developed to help our customers manage their finances after retirement through specialized services," said a KEB Hana Bank spokesman.
The platform is also connected to KEB Hana's Hana 1Q digital banking. This means customers do not have to open a separate pension management account for the platform if they already have a KEB Bank account.
The bank has been actively expanding its Global Loyalty Network (GLN) digital platform worldwide this year.
GLN will enable customers to make digital financial transactions wherever they are in the world through the decentralized and distributed system using blockchain technology.
KEB Hana said this can be connected with its other platforms as it expands its alliances not only with other banks but also payment gateways, retailers and fund managers.
Hana Financial Group said the platform can be further developed and useful for customers as it integrates blockchain with cloud computing technology, which can boost convenience and mobility.
