SEOUL, Oct. 8 (Yonhap) -- DGB Daegu Bank, a small South Korean bank, said Thursday that it has been granted a license to expand its banking businesses in Cambodia.
DGB Specialized Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of DGB Daegu Bank, got the nod from the Cambodian authorities to operate as a commercial bank in the Southeast Asian country on Sept. 30.
