Woori Bank Vietnam announced on November 21 that it has opened its 22nd branch, "Starlake Branch", in the Hanoi New Town on November 20.
Starlake Branch is the first Woori Bank Vietnam branch to become a PB Signature Branch with "Two-Chairs", an exclusive service for local high net worth customers.
Located in the Hồ Tây (West Lake) district of central Hanoi, Starlake New Town is a multi-functional residential, commercial, administrative, and cultural new town that made headlines in September with the opening of Lotte Mall, the largest commercial complex in the country.
The opening ceremony was attended by officials from major Vietnamese organizations and Korean-Americans.
"In May, we launched the 'Dutch Pay Service' that reflects local characteristics in connection with Vietnam's national messenger Zalo and received a great response," said an official from Woori Bank. "We plan to further expand our local retail business by continuously improving our 22 networks and non-face-to-face platform 'Woori WON Vietnam' in line with market trends."
Meanwhile, Woori Bank Vietnam opened a new Le Dai Hanh branch in Ho Chi Minh City on November 27, and plans to further accelerate its local operations with a US$200 million capital increase in the first half of 2024.
