(Seoul=NSP News Agency) YEON SUN HAN Journalist = ShinHan Bank began its first trading on global custody services that keeps and manages Vietnam investment assets equivalent to KRW 50 billion after its authorization on Vietnam custody bank operation on last July.

Up to now, Funds and Pension funds have foreign custody banks have been asking custody services to foreign banks because there were no Korean banks that provide general services on custody, operations and settlement.
