Korea Development Bank

A fully owned subsidiary of the South Korean government, the Korea Development Bank develops public policy. It was established in 1954 in compliance with the Korea Development Bank Act to finance and oversee significant industrial projects and quicken Korea's industrialization.

KDB Bank, the 61st largest bank in the world according to The Banker Top 1000 World Bank List for 2018, has not only supported the development of critical industries but also helped struggling businesses turn around through restructuring and provided funding for strategic development initiatives.

It has expanded into investment banking services since 2000 and now runs as a CIB (Commercial and Investment Bank). Nonetheless, it is a significant restructuring player and has helped many large corporations survive catastrophic financial crises, including the Asian financial crisis of 1997 and the 2007–2008 financial crisis.
