Program Overview
In 2017, CTBC Bank acquired a stake in Thailand's LH Financial Group to expand in the Thai market. By 2021, CTBC increased its stake to 46.6%, becoming the largest shareholder. This made CTBC the Taiwanese bank with the most branches in Thailand.

This approach ensures that students' education is directly aligned with the demands of the financial industry, preparing them to thrive on the global stage—not just to adapt, but to lead.
