Hana Bank signs won swap deal with RFI, first for South Korean banks
Hana Bank signed a won swap deal in London with a foreign bank registered as a Recognised Foreign Institution, it said. The bank said it was the first time a South Korean bank had concluded a won swap transaction with an RFI. Hana said its London funding centre supplied won liquidity directly to overseas won swap demand. It plans to expand the centre’s scope from FX and remittances to sales of won government bonds, domestic stocks and won derivatives.
