Booyoung Khmer Bank (BKB) is a commercial bank in Cambodia backed by South Korea’s Booyoung Group, an international conglomerate with investments in real estate, education, and financial services across Asia. The bank officially began operations on 16 July 2008 after receiving a full commercial banking license from the National Bank of Cambodia, becoming the 22nd commercial bank in the Kingdom and one of the few banks with 100% Korean capital.
Headquartered in Booyoung Town 1 on Russian Federation Boulevard in Phnom Penh, Booyoung Khmer Bank offers a range of financial services including deposits, loans, trade finance, and other banking solutions tailored to both individuals and businesses. The bank positions itself as a reliable financial partner, aiming to support economic growth and provide quality banking services to customers in Cambodia.
Booyoung Khmer Bank operates with the support of its parent company, Booyoung Housing Co., Ltd., and is governed by a board of directors led by Chairman Dr. Lee Joong Keun. The institution has gradually expanded its footprint, with branches in Phnom Penh and other provinces, including Siem Reap and Khan Meanchey, and continues to explore further growth opportunities in Cambodia.
Backed by strong Korean investment and long-term development ambitions, Booyoung Khmer Bank aims to contribute to Cambodia’s banking sector by delivering stable, customer-focused financial services while supporting the country’s economic development.
