On October 21st, Shinhan Financial Group announced that its 2015 third quarter net profit recorded 679 billion won, and the total net profit hit 1.96 trillion won. This represents an 11 percent increase year-on-year.

Shinhan has been successful despite the low-interest and low-growth trend that started in 2011 with the global financial crisis. Although the group’s NIM continued to decrease, Shinhan’s ordinary profit has constantly shown slight increases.

The major traits of Shinhan Financial Group’s 2015 third quarter management performance are as follows:

First, despite fluctuating profit margins, Shinhan’s capability to create profits stood out.

Second, it stabilized the net interest margin and interest profits through loan growth and deposit management.

Third, bad account costs have reduced, proving the stability of Shinhan’s assets. This is seen as a result of the risk management policy Shinhan has pushed over the last five years.

Fourth, Shinhan’s business portfolio stood out as profitable due to its non-banking businesses including card, financial investments, life insurance and capital recovery.

Shinhan Financial Group’s status in the global financial industry is also experiencing a rise. For the first time among domestic financial groups, Shinhan was included in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index for three years in a row.

Last February, renowned banking industry publication “The Banker” listed Shinhan Financial Group as the global No. 36 and domestic No. 1 - its fourth top domestic ranking on the list since 2012.
