DGB Daegu Bank is embarking on a new chapter as a commercial bank, 56 years after its launch as a regional bank. It is the first new commercial bank to be launched in 32 years, following the now-defunct Peace Bank of Korea in 1992.
With the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) League opening, banks are introducing specialized deposit offerings based on the performance of each baseball team. These products are designed to tap into fans loyalty and passion toward professional baseball, which has the largest sports fan base in the country.
