Hanmi Bank

Working at Hanmi Bank in Los Angeles is not just business to Vivian Kim — it's personal. 

Hanmi was created 40 years ago with the mission to help bank the Korean American community, a segment that was overlooked by other mainstream financial institutions. Kim is Korean American. Her parents immigrated to the U.S. in 1990 and are small-business owners operating several laundromats.
