ANTHONY KIM
Executive Vice President; Chief Banking Officer
Hanmi Bank / Hanmi Financial Corporation
Anthony Kim is EVP and chief banking officer at Hanmi Bank, a role he has held since 2020. In this capacity, he is responsible for revenue targets including new loan production, deposit gathering, overseeing 35 branches, two corporate banking centers, and the specialty lending group.
In the last 12 months, Kim and his team have successfully navigated notable industry challenges by enhancing and expanding client relationships, maintaining a focus on strong credit administration, diversifying the bank’s lending capabilities and optimizing the branch network across six states, which included opening two new branches: one in Northern California and another in New Jersey. Additionally, the asset quality of the bank’s portfolio remained excellent during 2023 with very low delinquencies, nonperforming assets and net charge-offs. This performance reflects the keen focus Kim and his team maintain on high-quality loans, disciplined underwriting and vigilant credit administration practices.
