Taipei Fubon Bank responds to lending and remittance allegations
Issue disclosure
Reports alleged that Taipei Fubon Bank's general manager may have disregarded internal risk warnings and pressured staff to approve lending to Yi Heng Health, and raised questions about a possible remittance to him as ultimate beneficiary. The bank said its internal review found the remittance flow unrelated to the general manager and that meeting recordings showed no pressure to approve the additional loan; it also said it had begun internal and independent investigations and would cooperate with regulators.
