Lee Chanwoo, former Vice Chairman of the Financial Supervisory Service

Lee Chan-woo, former chief deputy of the FSS, has been appointed as the candidate for chairman of NongHyup Financial Group.

According to the financial sector on the 27th, NongHyup Financial held a meeting of the recommendation committee that day and selected the former deputy as the candidate for the next chairman. However, the former deputy is in a situation where a job review process by the Public Officials Ethics Committee is necessary, so the final appointment will be confirmed in early February next year. It has been understood that Lee Jae-ho, deputy president of NongHyup Financial Group, will assume the 'acting chairman' role until February next year.

The former deputy, born in 1966, graduated from Busan National University affiliated high school and majored in political science at Seoul National University (class of 88). After that, he passed the 31st National Administrative Examination and served as director of comprehensive policies in the Economic Policy Division of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, director of the Economic Policy Bureau, and Deputy Minister.
