SC Bank Korea marks 15% rise in net profit during 1st half
SC제일은행, 상반기 순이익 전년 대비 15% 증가


By Yi Whan-woo

Standard Chartered (SC) Bank Chief Executive Bill Winters will come to Korea later this month, making a return trip following his last visit in August 2020, according to the Seoul branch office of the London-head quartered multinational bank and financial sources, Wednesday.
수요일 영국에 본사를 둔 다국적 은행인 스탠다드 차타드(SC) 은행의 한국 지점 및 금융 소식통들에 따르면 빌 윈터스 회장은 2020년 8월 마지막 방문에 이어 8월 말 한국에 다시 방문한다.


SC Bank Korea confirmed the chief executive's scheduled visit but did not give further details, including the time of his arrival, duration of his stay, agenda to be discussed or the high-profile Korean figures that he has arranged to meet.
SC제일은행은 윈터스 회장의 예정된 방문을 공식화했으나 도착 시간, 체류 기간, 논의 주제 및 그가 만나기로 한 세간의 이목을 끄는 인사들을 포함한 세부 사항은 제공하지 않았다.


Financial sources speculate that the nature of the trip will be mainly to check on its Korea operations, which have shown steady performance over the past years. It is now the only foreign lender providing retail services after Citibank decided to wind down its retail unit here.
금융 소식통들은 이번 방문의 성격이 지난 몇 년 간 꾸준한 성과를 내온 SC제일은행의 운영 확인일 것이라고 추측했다. SC제일은행은 한국씨티은행이 국내 소매금융 철수를 결정한 이후 유일한 외국계 소매사업 은행이다.


Winters is scheduled to have lunch with SC Bank Korea's board of directors on Aug. 30, according to sources.
정보에 따르면 8월 30일 윈터스 회장은 SC제일은행 이사회 회원들과 점심 식사를 할 예정이다.


The Seoul office's efforts to keep up with the rapidly-evolving digital banking environment is anticipated to be on Winters' checklist.
윈터스 회장은 빠르게 진화하는 디지털 뱅킹 환경에 발맞추려는 서울 SC제일은행의 노력을 감독할 것으로 예상된다.


Conventional banks in Korea face an uphill battle against big tech firms that have been capitalizing on their digital prowess to muscle in on the banking industry.
한국의 전통적인 은행들은 은행 사업에 발을 들이기 위해 디지털 기술을 자본화한 빅테크 기업들과의 힘겨운 경쟁에 직면했다.


Against this backdrop, during his month-long trip in 2020, Winters discussed possible cooperation with representatives of some of the fast-growing fintech firms, such as Kakao Bank, NHN Payco and Viva Republica.
이러한 배경을 바탕으로 윈터스 회장은 2020년 장기간 서울에 머무는 동안 카카오뱅크, NHN 페이코, 비바 리퍼블리카와 같이 급성장하는 핀테크 기업의 대표와 협력 가능성에 대해 논의했다.


Led by CEO Park Jong-bok, SC Bank Korea has maintained a handsome performance due to the increased interest margin.
박종복 CEO가 이끈 SC제일은행은 이자 이익 증가로 큰 성과를 유지했다.


On Tuesday, SC Bank Korea reported that it posted a net profit of 212.1 billion won ($161.7 million) in the first half of this year, up 14.8 percent from a year earlier.
화요일 SC제일은행은 올해 상반기 당기 순이익 2121억 원을 기록했다고 밝힌 한편 이는 전년 동기 14.8% 증가한 수치다.


The company largely attributed the earnings to interest revenue, which jumped 17.8 percent year-on-year to 584.2 billion won.
SC제일은행은 이러한 수익을 크게 이자 이익의 덕분으로 돌렸는데, 이자 이익은 전년 동기보다 17.8% 증가한 5842억 원을 기록했다.


The rise in earnings is also attributed to the fall in payroll expenses after the bank conducted a large voluntary retirement program in the last quarter of 2021.
또 순이익 증가에는 지난해 4분기에 은행이 대규모 특별퇴직을 행한 후 인건비가 절감하며 지출이 감소한 영향도 있다.


Winters has been leading SC Bank since June 2015 after joining the company a month earlier. He spent 26 years with JP Morgan, serving in various leadership roles before being promoted to CEO in 2004 until he stepped down in 2009.
윈터스 회장은 2015년 5월 회사에 입사한 후 한 달이 지난 6월 CEO로 취임했다. 그는 JP모건에서 26년간 근무하며 다양한 리더십 역할을 수행했던 한편 2004년부터 JP모건 CEO로 승진한 뒤 2009년 퇴임했다.
