Shinhan Financial Group - Capital Policy

We, Shinhan Financial Group, have disclosed our mid- to long-term capital policy in September 2020. Despite the prolonged pandemic, we have been striving to diversify the method and timing of shareholder returns, including the commencement of quarterly dividend payouts, share buybacks and cancellations to enhance shareholder value.

We have further clarified our shareholder return policy while establishing our mid-term financial goals as follows:  

Our mid-term financial goals 

- ROE(Return On Equity) of 10.5%; 

- ROTCE(Return on Tangible Common Equity) of 12.0%; and, 

- CET1(Common Equity Tier-1 Ratio) of 12.0% 

* Our mid-term financial goals were set in consideration of maintaining adequate loss absorption capacity and securing additional growth potential.

The direction of our shareholder return policy 

- maintain or increase a dividend per share; 

- pay regular quarterly dividends while implementing share buybacks and cancellations; and,

- strive to increase the total shareholder return ratio. 

* Notwithstanding the above, our capital policy may be modified due to other factors including, but not limited to unresolved economic uncertainties, stress test and regulation changes, and strategic business decisions such as new business expansions.

We will continue to make efforts towards improving shareholder value while establishing a more predictable capital policy. If a change to this policy is warranted, we will make efforts to disclose and communicate the relevant information with our investors.
