Nevertheless, the BankSign tool is designed to transform the banking sector of South Korea. Commenting on partnership with BankSign, representatives of the Central bank noted that they hope to reduce operating costs with its help, to improve quality of the provided services and to consider the new possibilities of use of BankSign.
