The purchase makes Hana Financial the fourth-largest shareholder in Dunamu, following several crypto-related deals in the last two months, as it dives deeper into the digital assets sector.
Major South Korean financial conglomerate Hana Financial is buying a stake in Dunamu, the operator of the crypto exchange Upbit, in its latest venture into the digital assets sector, amid a broader trend of traditional financial institutions wading into the digital assets market.
In a regulatory filing on Friday, Hana Financial announced it is buying more than 2.2 million shares in Dunamu, or roughly 6.55% of the company, from investment firm Kakao Investment, worth over 1.003 trillion Korean won ($668 million).
Hana Financial’s 6.55% stake from Kakao makes it the fourth-largest Dunamu shareholder. South Korean outlet The Chosun Daily reported last September that major shareholders of Dunamu include its chairman Song Chi-hyung with 25.5%; Vice Chairman Kim Hyoung-nyon with 13.1%; Kakao with 10.6% and Woori Technology Investment with 7.2%.
