        On the occasion of celebrating the 30th anniversary of its founding in the second quarter of this year, Far Eastern International Bank received the notice of promotion from the Taiwan Stock Exchange on corporate governance evaluation, and its performance rose to the top 5% of the group of listed companies. It was awarded the "Asia Best Employer Award" by the leading Asian human resources media HRAsia, opening the prelude to the sustainable practice of the next decade.

        In 1992, the government opened up the establishment of a new bank, and Far Eastern Group responded to the call of the times of financial modernization, liberalization and internationalization to establish Far Eastern International Bank. We have survived the Asian financial storm, industrial migration, double card crisis, global financial tsunami, the outbreak of the new crown epidemic and other boom and turbulence events along the way. We have introduced the management thinking of international banks with a bicultural leadership team, grown and thrived in the challenges, and gradually expanded the scale. Our competitiveness has passed the test of the international capital market, It is the first non financial bank in Taiwan that has experience in issuing ECB (overseas unsecured convertible financial bonds) and GDR (overseas depositary receipts) in the international market.

        Focus on niche business layout

        Far Eastern International Bank is good at laying out niche commodities. In its early years, it took the lead in foreign exchange margin trading launched by peers, cooperated with the operation of the global foreign exchange market, and opened 24-hour services throughout the year, which is rare in the industry. In the third decade of its establishment, in the face of rapid changes in the environment such as globalization and scientific and technological development, the overseas market has moved from Hong Kong, Shanghai to Singapore and Vietnam to build a cross-border enterprise financial service platform, make every effort to sprint overseas syndicated loan and cross-border financing, and successfully create new highlight businesses. In 2017, it hosted a joint credit proposal for Huay Vietnam Group Limited, a large Vietnamese restaurant chain group, It was the successful organization of the first international syndicated loan project of Far Eastern International Bank, an enterprise in the ASEAN market. In recent years, the cross-border syndicated loan project hosted by Far Eastern International Bank was awarded the best syndicated loan project award and green financing project award in Taiwan by Asian Banking&Finance, a professional financial media in Singapore. Overseas loans accounted for more than 25% of the total legal loans.

        In order to cater to the wave of digital economy, strengthen the application and innovation of digital channels and digital finance, Far Eastern International Bank initiated the "Bankee Community Bank" in 2018 to connect new entrepreneurs and Far Eastern Group affiliated enterprises, expand the financial flow service scene, and build the digital financial life circle of the Far Eastern Group. The innovative digital business model has not only won the favor of experts at home and abroad, It won several digital financial benchmarking awards and captured the demand of petty bourgeoisie and young people. The balance of deposits rose steadily, breaking the NTD 7 billion mark.

In order to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Bank's opening, and in response to the vision of the Financial Supervision and Regulation Commission to urge Taiwan to become an ESG model student, it has launched 30 new ESG sustainable actions with various business groups as the core force. The "Establishment of Enterprise Sustainability Committee" and "Signing of TCFD Task Force on Climate related Financial Discoveries (TCFD)" opened the curtain. The legal finance business group, which undertook the financing of the first geothermal power plant in Taiwan, committed to strengthening the financing support plan for new energy and renewable energy (such as geothermal power generation), assisted in driving the local energy transformation with green financial power, and became the accelerator of recycled economy, The signing of the Equator Principles will also be included in the schedule.

The advocacy film "Go to Work with the Dog", which was produced and broadcast on YouTube's "Small Win" channel, led the public to understand the training and duty process of guide dogs. In addition, we allocated 0.3% of the card amount of "Far Eastern Group Lejia+Card" cardholder during the activity to donate to the Taiwan Guide Dog Association, It is used to help establish a living and training space for guide dogs to learn safely, so that more visually impaired compatriots can be served. In addition, the Far Eastern Group Eden Love Card, which has been issued for 26 years, was expanded to hold card raising activities, with a view to rapidly increasing the accumulated donation of Eden that has exceeded NTD 50 million so far.

                ESG primary school starts

        The digital financial business group, which recently launched the first Yuanuniverse Branch in Taiwan, continued to optimize the complex remote office environment and overcome related problems one by one, with a view to establishing a benchmark for the new normal working mode, and planned to help more micro public welfare organizations with the Bankee digital account, in combination with activities such as doubling the public welfare donations of customers, and at the same time continue to sponsor the professional baseball Weiquanlong team to participate in the Far Eastern International Bank ESG event.
