iM Bank was founded on October 7, 1967 as the country’s first regional bank. It later set the foundation for a comprehensive financial group as iM Financial Group and converted to a commercial bank in 2024. This year, by opening branches in Jeonju and Gwangju in the second half, iM Bank is expanding its presence in the Honam region and across the country, widening its nationwide network.

This year’s anniversary event featured the sharing of digital work utilization ideas developed directly by employees, as well as the presentation of future business vision through the avatar of iM Bank President Kang Jung-hoon, highlighting the bank's future management commitment.

An iM Bank official explained, "After converting to a commercial bank, we decided to hold the 59th anniversary celebration differently from previous years as we expand branches nationwide. Breaking away from past ceremonies focused solely on commemorating history, we designed the event to envision a future that every employee can empathize with and participate in building together."

Kang Jung-hoon, President of iM Bank, emphasized, "iM Bank will leverage its strengths in regional finance and field-driven sales capability to expand the new roles of a commercial bank as a hybrid bank. Through even stronger information protection and rigorous security capabilities for the future era, we will move toward becoming iM Bank, a trusted bank for the next 100 years that provides a safe future together."
