Woori Bank's former head arrested for allegedly making unfair loans, what's behind it?

Recently, Mr. Lim Mo, a former general manager of Woori Bank, was arrested by the Seoul Southern District Court for allegedly making improper loans to relatives of former Woori Financial Holdings Chairman Son Tae-seung. The case is a major blow to the credibility of the lending process within Woori Bank, and we are concerned about its impact on the financial community.

The case alleges that from April 2020 to early this year, Woori Bank provided improper loans worth KRW 35 billion to relatives of former Chairman Son. Mr. Lim was named as the leader of the loan, and the court decided to detain him due to concerns about destruction of evidence.

Events unfold

The court found that "the loan process was not properly followed and that Mr. Lim was likely to have engaged in dereliction of duty and misconduct in the loan process." In particular, the prosecution suggested that during his pretrial interrogation, Lim may have fabricated the data that led to his prioritization of the loan.

The FSA has already launched an investigation into the case and is looking into further investigations by a number of relevant agencies. The FSA takes seriously the adverse impact of these fraudulent loans on banking confidence.

Looking ahead

The case is likely to lead to an investigation into the entire leadership of Woori Bank. Prosecutors are expected to find more information through a full internal audit based on the constitution and laws. The industry is concerned that the case could have a negative impact on other financial institutions as well.

In particular, there are now calls for tighter controls and more transparent lending processes to restore trust in the financial sector. While it remains to be seen how this case will play out, we will be watching to see what lessons it will teach the financial sector as a whole.
