According to The Korea Times, as Deutsche Bank is setting up its business again in the country, it has appointed the former head of Korea Debt Capital Market (DCM) for Mizuho Securities Asia, Adele Moon, to be the leader of DCM for Deutsche Bank Korea. In her new role, she is expected to lead the team in the expansion of the company’s client footprint. This is the bank’s first comeback in the Korean debt capital market since ending the service in 2018.

In any case, as it returns, Deutsche Bank also recruited Oh Shin Na for its investment banking team in Seoul. Her main job is to form and develop relationships with both corporate and international sponsors. Prior to joining the company, Oh worked at Credit Suisse and has some job experience with the Samsung Group, the Lotte Group, and Hyundai Motor Group.
“We are confident in the opportunity that South Korea holds and have expanded our investment capabilities accordingly,” Ahn Sung Eun, Deutsche Bank’s chief country officer for South Korea, said in a press release. “Our first priority is our clients, and we are pleased that we can offer them broad market access and expertise to help with their growth strategies.”
