Dividends
The Company established its Corporate Value-up Plan on July 26, 2024 and set the following key targets to be achieved by 2027. These targets included
Through a progress review of its target levels, the Company decided to maintain the previously established targets. However, in order to commence the full implementation of the corporate value-up plan in 2025, the Board of Directors resolved on April 25, 2025 to adopt the following plan.
Based on the 2025 implementation review and assessment, the Company’s ROE and ROTCE improved, driven by profit growth centered on banking and securities. Despite market volatility in exchange rates and interest rates, appropriate growth enabled the CET1 ratio to improve by more than 30bp compared to plan. In addition, through the consistent execution of shareholder return policies and an additional cash dividend to meet the requirements for separate taxation of dividend income for investors, the Company achieved an early realization of a 50% shareholder return ratio.
For further details regarding the Company’s Corporate Value-up Plan, please refer to the voluntary disclosure titled ‘2025 Shinhan Financial Group Corporate Value-up Plan’ announced on April 25, 2025.

-The bonus consisted of the 2024 annual performance bonus of KRW 187 million and the long-term performance share (PS) granted in 2021 of KRW 217 million. The 2024 annual performance bonus was paid in the first quarter of 2025, based on the criteria set by the first Compensation Committee in 2024 and reflecting both company and individual annual performance evaluation results. The long-term performance share (PS) granted in 2021 was paid in the first quarter of 2025, based on the criteria set by the first Compensation Committee in 2021, reflecting the company’s performance over the subsequent four years and the Shinhan Financial Group’s reference share price at the beginning of 2025.
- The 2024 annual performance bonus was determined by comprehensively evaluating quantitative indicators—shareholder value (total shareholder return), profitability (ROE, ROTCE), soundness (non-performing loan ratio), risk (RAROC), and efficiency (cost-to-income ratio)—together with non-quantitative indicators such as driving change and innovation at the Group level and expanding performance creation through “Digital to Value.” The final amount was calculated by reflecting the performance evaluation grade derived from these indicators, the achievement rate of company performance evaluation targets, and the absolute profit scale of the Group compared to prior years, and was finalized after considering the company’s risk management task evaluation score.
