According to the financial sector on the 13th, Busan Bank has decided to invest 10 billion won in an 'LP Growth Fund' that supports venture companies in the defense industry and supply chain sectors within the Southeast region.
The total size of the 'LP Growth Fund' being established is 112.5 billion won. Through this fund, Busan Bank plans to identify promising local companies that possess excellent technological capabilities but face difficulties in raising capital, and support them so they can grow stably.
