SBI savings bank cider (junggeumri loans) is an inflection point this year

[Korea before lower cervical financial newspaper reporter] SBI savings bank last year launched the first 'cider' has topped 300 billion won ahead. Cider success in customer acquisition, but revenue is reportedly rarely born. In the industry there are various opinions with the coming and going of cider profitability. The cider was evaluated cumulative loans the interest rate is increased even if the occupancy of user feedback and savings banks, CITIC profit structure is not the day lower. The success of this year's cider is the dominant perspective of the inflection point.

This year is due to enter into household loans from savings banks tighten lending financial authorities do nokrokji business environment. OK Savings Bank, savings bank that already welcome treat a lot of household credit is being investigated by the Financial Supervisory Service. There is also growing doubts about whether the cider in this situation can and delinquency busilyul managed effectively. Since becoming interested in collecting what paved the way to catch this year, SBI savings bank soundness and profitability.

◇ industry, "added Anna existing customer lending revenue anhamyeon"

According to SBI savings banks, nine-day cumulative loans cider has surpassed 300 billion won to 290 billion won ahead. Considering the fact that cider dwaetdaneun released December 21, 2015 can be viewed as achieved explosive growth in the short term. Quality is also high. Last year he was awarded the industry's attention note 7 to 0% delinquency rate until March. A year past now overdue, insolvency occurs but known to very low levels.

Savings Bank SBI official said, "Although we do not disclose the delinquency and busilryul a very low level."

The industry is expected to cider is unlikely to succeed. Remind why the interest rate, which is the strength of cider low. One savings bank industry official said, "Although advocates the junggeumri in the savings bank actually have a lot of customers who run a loan with a maximum interest rate offered by the product" and "substantial revenue situation coming from customers who applied the maximum rate." said.

According to the Korea Federation of Savings Banks lending disclosure, the highest rate in February was 13.5% of the reference rate applied to said Cider 6.9% minimum interest rates.

Cider current loans rose to junggeumri disclosure is a very low level of interest rates as compared to third-party savings bank loans junggeumri. Savings Bank junggeumri look at the product application rate rose to loan disclosures BNK Savings Bank Mai chief Ron rate is 7.16 ~ 14%, Shinhan Savings Bank hug Ron 6.2 ~ 17.3%, IBK savings banks indeed - good loans 6.15 ~ 16.64%, so the savings banks vitamin H 15.9 ~ 18.9%, Wellcome savings banks welcome ten loans 8.9 ~ 19.9% ​​Pepper savings bank Pepper tapeop 8.9 ~ 27.9%, Cheongju savings bank transfer theory 17.5 ~ 19% cider minimum interest rate lower than the savings bank product is applicable interest rate 6.2% is the lowest Shinhan savings bank hug Ron.

KDIC as According to the Savings Bank personal credit loan interest calculation systems and Implications', loan rates best practices on the interest rate decision details are lending rate = lending costs (financing, credit, services, capital) + goals margin + adjusts interest rates It is calculated. One trillion months costs are deposits, loans, bonds, etc. refers to the cost of financing the credit costs of the borrower's credit rating, the type of loan product, the expected loss linking can occur, on average, according to the loan maturity, etc., business costs are personnel costs, expenses, legal for that the costs calculated by applying the cost allocation methods, capital costs, says the opportunity cost of capital required to be held against unexpected losses. The cider industry in the current interest rate can not be left staring into a lot of advertising and labor costs and the profit margins come in. Cider has conducted a 'cider' TV ad from the year before last July in September.

Another savings banking industry official said, "Advertising is a cost-effective 2-3 years appears Cheers.Bask away," he said "it takes a long time until filling into the already advertising again," he said.

If SBI savings banks that use a lot of marketing costs traditional cider as the customer does not run his mouth to collect an additional loan difficult to obtain high profits.

Financial industry officials are even more "cider itself just by looking at revenue this day can not structure being product sales that continued cases will have in mind the possibility of additional loans," said "go piled million additional loans that are less than the cumulative loans yirwojiji sales revenue is not born, "he says. Quality management is also regarded as a challenge to be solved cider. Even if the delinquency rate is low because the individual regeneration is difficult to manage. In addition, at the time of the recent high and increasing number of users it has yeoteumedo If you apply for a personal loan term regeneration of the savings bank industry is trying to prevent personal regeneration. Because it is difficult to prevent the insolvency industry perspective.

Savings bank industry official said, "The only full credit personal loans SBI savings banks is very large as 2 trillion total revenues from corporate finance big part," he said, "will not be easy bet cider revenues."

Another official said the financial sector was also analyzed that cider is a secure database (DB) for junggeumri loan market, rather than a strategic product for this purpose on the profitability level. Even Ron background light running, but the margin continues to remain in the savings bank loan secured jeosinyongja customer base. Financial officials "should go junggeumri build up information about their customer base in the lending market was not long after this gestation" and "analyze the customer segments based on the data obtained can be utilized to create a new product," he said.

Savings Bank SBI official said, "The larger the market itself junggeumri revenue expected me," "Cider was the purpose of the product, rather than blue-chip customer base junggeumri loan market occupation and intended to profitability," he said.

◇ advanced key credit rating system

SBI savings banks are struggling to turn around cider. Constitute a 'pin-tech TF' team for a personal credit rating system last July (CSS) advanced for this and hired a private company CB Nice staff assessment information from a leader.

Savings Bank SBI official said, "The Cider has advanced CSS factors were so successful so far," said "are more sophisticated than it is now servicing the system," he said. Gimchanyoung Deposit Insurance Corporation Savings Bank management deputy's' Savings Bank personal credit loan interest calculation systems and implications "from the" Savings Bank loans in excess of such lending costs and produce detailed loan costs, depending on Product and customer characteristics of individual credit should apply the interest rate can be posted to profit on the loan deal, "he said.

However, there are difficulties to overcome visual sophistication to the personal regeneration with CSS. This is because credit rating one grade even though the savings bank customers is difficult to determine the nature that loyal customers

CB company official said, "even one grade varies depending on the individual's debt situation that it is difficult to determine the credit rating excellent customer" and "at least one grade lending is difficult to say that they will be built neat the low interest rates," he said. In fact, though one grade of savings bank customers there are cases where the loan is running at a high rate.

According to the Korea Federation of Savings Banks interest rates an Account Status, KB good loan interest rate applicable to the Class 1 share deal gone up to 1.368% in February junggeumri loans were disclosed to 17.7%. 3 star rating rather than handling accounted for 5.062% yeoteuna appeared to have been applied to the lower interest rate than the interest rate applicable as holder of a Class 1 6.5 ~ 17.7%. Shinhan Savings Bank hug Ron also holds a first-class credit rating was treated as a percentage 3.16% rate is applied yeoteuna 10.5 ~ 16.6% 2 rating applies to interest rate is 6.2 ~ 15.1% ~ 16.6 6.2 3 ratings apply interest rates%. Ron Hug 4,5 rating applied to each interest rate 6.2 ~ 16.6%, the lowest rate applicable was lower than 1 star performer loans to 6.2 ~ 17.1%. This means greater is the interest rate spectrum.

Cider is also 2-5 big interest rate spectrum of grades holders. Grade 1 applies interest rate is 6.9%, second grade 6.9 ~ 12%, Class III 6.9 to 10%, fourth grade 6.9 ~ 13.5% and 5 stars 6.9 ~ 13.5% and 6 grade 8 ~ 13.5% 7 Class 12 ~ 13.5% .

Household loans in the savings bank industry, internal and external economic uncertainty has increased, including advanced screening system. In addition, this year is a situation where the business environment is difficult okjoegi enters the savings bank household loans from financial authorities. OK household loans surged savings banks, savings banks welcome reportedly out an investigation at the Financial Supervisory Service. When powered by a standard bank provisioning levels from next year, the cider is great a chance to be an inflection point. But it is still early to evaluate the cadastral cider.

One savings bank industry officials "personal credit loans are loans extended periods, unlike business loans Now the deficit situation continues, I do not," he said. "This will be achieved successfully pass the assessment years."

KB Life, competitiveness project start-up

[Korea gimmingyeong financial newspaper reporter] this year, KB Financial Group has elected Stuart Solomon, known as MetLife chairman and former 'insurance through "outside directors. The industry predicts that this getdaneun intended for KB Financial sit the non-banking sector, especially in the power group located within a narrow KB Life Insurance. However, true unknowns have much effect as from various regulatory authorities of prolonged low interest rates and financial recession life insurance industry.

In recent years, financial institutions have devoted its attention to non-bank consolidation. This is because the interest rate uncertainty becomes larger and expected profitability of banks will be higher than thought. KB Financial Group also actively raised comes damages insurance and securities has been called the petite. This year's analysis of why the 'KB life time "comes.

◇ non-life insurance, securities and extend petite bulryeoon KB Financial

KB Financial Group was officially launched in 2008 to hold the National Bank. In 2009, KB Life Insurance, while the opening of a branch cloth hung ribbons of the first non-bank affiliate branches. In 2014 he signed a contract of sale for the shares of LIG Insurance acquired the domestic second-tier insurers incorporated and received approval from the Finance Committee later that year. The following year, 2015 KB life insurance, while the official launch to the twelfth subsidiary of KB Financial Group emerged as the Insurance Industry 'tycoon'.

In addition, assets of 5 trillion won in the large brokerage Hyundai Securities insujeon changed my dominion affiliates to win the group. Previously, in terms of volume and profit contribution, banks, KB Card, KB Investment & Securities' net, but was recently reorganized into 'Bank, KB Securities, KB Insurance, KB Card, KB Life' net.

After the official launch of the Year in 2014, KB Financial Group KB Capital affiliates gaebeom eleventh after another, including the non-life insurance 2015 KB, 2017 KB integrated securities have been called the body size of the non-bank affiliates.

Through subsequent acquisitions of non-bank affiliates of KB Financial Group scored a good performance. KB Financial Group was propaganda and record annual net profit last year 1400 Check-out: 1200 2 1 trillion billion won. Following the acquisition by Hyundai Securities LIG Insurance and French were also the group with total assets 375 trillion won level. As a result, even a non-bank affiliate revenue share was only 25% in 2015 increased to 32%.

This non-bank affiliate earnings ratio of KB Financial Group showed nearly 55 percent (1.1794 trillion won) of the total. According to Shinhan Investment Corp. estimates the contribution from the non-banking sector profit of KB Financial Group is expected to increase this year by 37-31% in 2016. Shinhan Investment Corp. predicts that "KB equity securities if given the (ROE) 6.5% contribution in 2017 is expected to be extended to non-banking sector to 38%."

◇ insurance through recruiting outside directors ... Stewart, former chairman Solomon

KB Financial Group thus been focused on the non-banking sector has recently diversified portfolio Solomon Stuart (Stuart B. Solomon) elected former president of MetLife Insurance as the new outside directors. Meanwhile, the life insurance subsidiary of KB Life Insurance two influential groups within the industry and within this phase is relatively low is interpreted as a willingness to strengthen the capacity in terms of life insurance. Stuart Solomon, former president of figures, yet the insurance industry professional managers who indeda through foreign representatives 'jihanpa' of the financial industry. Degree in physiology from the University of Syracuse, New York and South Korea signed a bond with the first Peace Corps in 1971 was being prepared to attend medical school. Solomon is a former president at the time had passed two years volunteering yeogan traveled all over the country in the health center.

Since the former chairman Solomon has worked 16 years in Korea Exchange Bank New York Branch have joined the predecessor of Cologne meth lives of MetLife in 1995 ended in January 2011 retirement. MetLife bought the stake through both Kolon Group Managing Director, Executive Vice President since changed its name to Korea MetLife CEO took office in 2001 and rose to chairman in 2009. Former Chairman Solomon is fluent Korean skills with considerable affection for Korea Culture. Enjoy miso soup that is said kongbiji and eat foods such as South Korea. Industry insiders predicted that "South Korea and the kite deep person," said "As will be pouring new strength to the insurer and management strategies, many foreign shareholders of KB Financial jegyeok" for the former chairman Solomon.

KB Financial Group, cited the advantage of being appointed as a director Stuart Solomon, former president be susceptible to foreign investors. KB Financial Group is a part of foreign shares as high as about 63%. Official "Foreign investors are what you think about the KB Financial Group, the image or reputation, such as it could be a channel of communication," said a positive opinion.

◇ KB Life, Can wings months

The industry predicts that among my choice of these two affiliates of KB Financial Group is located getdaneun intended to sit on a narrow KB life force. Unlike the four largest non-life insurance industry in KB Life Insurance KB because the assets in life insurance industry to rank in the top 17 of the Low of 25 companies. Total assets of 8 trillion in total assets accounted for 887.4 billion won share in KB Life Group is reportedly not less than 2%.

In total assets of the subsidiary and the other was going to be different. The 2.6% level of the main subsidiary of KB Kookmin Bank (307,000,000,000,000), KB Insurance (24) has excessively large gap. The same banking Shinhan Life insurers are even considering a point total assets ratio of 5% share in SFG group is located within the narrow side. Group net profit contribution is insignificant to about 0.6%, but performance has been steadily increasing. KB Life yieoganeun showed growth despite the prolonged slump in the life insurance industry in 65 billion won, 10.6 billion won in 2015, 12.7 billion won in 2016, 2014.

The securities expects to additional methods for M & A in KB Life Insurance industry in an attempt to increase phase. Daishin Securities "KB Financial Group is noted that recommend a life insurance professional outside directors," he said "there is a new International Accounting Standards (IFRS17) Recapitalization is difficult to insurance companies when introduced are expected to come up for sale, first in all sectors in the meantime the move toward a subsidiary of KB financial Group, we believe even communist actively engage in life insurance M & a "and predicted.

In the case of Shinhan Financial Group, which compete for the top spot Shinhan Financial Group Life was the industry's seventh record by the end of December, assets 27.4998 trillion won. The net profit also accounts for 5.43% of the total net SFG to about 150.6 billion won. The industry is looking forward to the opportunity to say 'reversed' to raise KB Financial Group is dragging the Securities and Insurance, including the non-banking sector to enhance life by narrowing the gap with SFG rapidly insurance.

However, KB Financial Group lined the side against these expectations. Naenwatda the official description of "because it was much less interest income of the bank will be strengthened by bringing in non-interest income side," he said "to strengthen the insurance and securities will showcase a variety of financial products." More simply, it is difficult to say, life insurers strengthened 'by the tag of' life insurance from.

In fact strengthen non-interest income is a 'key challenge' of the entire financial sector. And because we have significantly reduced revenues by prolonged low interest rate environment worldwide. KB Financial Group Inc. said it has appointed to judge, that outside directors on its strengths in these sectors as well as non-interest versed in the insurance industry Stewart, former chairman Solomon.

The life insurance industry is also expected to be increasingly difficult to strike a difficult reason that the future of KB Life. IFRS17 recapitalization because of the introduction of olratgi emerged as an urgent task. KB Financial Group was diagnosed as "IFRS17 after the introduction of a policy to see the situation the industry will be able to discuss whether or not to promote M & A" said "Today is a difficult argument to proceed with the merger seotbureuge state."

In fact, last year, KDB Life, ING Life, and the like to the bar came out for sale the temperature difference is appreciated in the market failed to sell. Allianz Life, Tong Yang Life Insurance, PCA Life, etc. were sold at a lower price than the market estimated prices.

KB Life with expanded for only several said it plans Django. Because other affiliates gotta ranked in the top life insurance business there is not only small-scale and fully recognized by the group. Insurance industry officials have predicted that "there is desire to raise her tejiman life in the KB Group level will be difficult to grow in the short-term nature of the insurance industry." Eventually KB loss how to mergers and acquisitions of insurance companies come up for sale on the market, as in the case of insurance, the description would be easier to have two choices in the hands of KB Life.

Compared with non-life insurance industry is also the time scale that is sufficient growth potential because it is a big market. Financial industry officials were diagnosed as "yeogan the past three years, KB Financial Group has raised the non-bank affiliates, Capital, Insurance, Securities turn" and "turn to turn to the life insurance industry."
