Yim Jong-ryong, chairman of Woori Financial Group, said, "Now that we have completed the comprehensive financial group system with the inclusion of securities companies and insurance companies, this is truly a golden time to show the actual synergy of Woori Financial."
On the 20th, Woori Financial explained that Chairman Yim emphasized this during the '2025 Second Half Group Management Strategy Workshop' held at the headquarters in Jung-gu, Seoul, on the 18th, stating, "Each subsidiary must enhance its core competitiveness while creating synergies through organic collaboration."
Chairman Yim then presented a vision for the 'artificial intelligence (AI) transformation' (AX), saying, "Let's accelerate the company-wide AX execution and demonstrate our true capabilities as a leading financial group."
He directly introduced 25 members of the group's AX operational team, stating, "AI is no longer just a simple tool, but a partner we work with. The person who can properly understand and utilize AI will be the key talent of the future." He also promised support for AX talent development at the group level.
Chairman Yim noted, "Last year, we established a new framework for corporate culture through complete privatization, and this year we successfully completed the comprehensive financial group system," adding, "In the second half of the year, let's leap as a leading financial group by implementing three core tasks: promoting AX, innovating internal controls, and fulfilling group synergies."
