Taesong Bank
Taesong Bank, also known as Daesong Bank or Taesong General Trading Corporation, is a North Korean bank based in Pyongyang. It is reportedly controlled by Room 39, the government’s financial office. The bank once ran Golden Star Bank in Vienna, its European subsidiary and the North’s only bank in Europe, until it closed in 2004; Kwon Yong-nok was an auditor there. Taesong Bank handles remittances from Mt. Kumgang tourism and exports of agricultural and fishery products. In Japan it has been called Chosun Tae Seong-Unhan.
