Deutsche Bank has appointed Samuel Kim as chief country officer for South Korea.
Based in Seoul, Kim takes over from Sungeun Ahn who will be leaving the bank after more than 10 years.
Kim joined Deutsche Bank in September 2023 as chairman of mergers and acquisitions in Asia Pacific, a role which he will continue in addition to being chief county officer of Korea.
He will work with Hyun-Nam Park, Deutsche Bank Korea branch manager.
Chandra Mallika, CEO of Developed Asia Pacific, says: “We look forward to leveraging Sam’s deep C-suite relationships across the region and his experience with leading local financial sponsors and large conglomerates to take our platform to the next level”.
