KiDSBank is a combination of “KiDS” and “Bank” from KDSB (KB Daehan Specialized Bank Plc.). KiDSBank is a small library with a playground for children which is located on the 22nd floor of KDSB’s head office, a place with panoramic views of Phnom Penh. Children visiting KDSB can either play games or read books while they are waiting for their parents negotiating with our staff. KDSB believes that reading, drawing, painting and playing materials in KiDSBank are catalysts for children to gain knowledge and abilities for imagination, creative and innovative thinking.

Customers are less worried that their kids will ask to go home early because at KiDSBank, their kids are enjoying playing, reading and drinking fresh milk for free. Furthermore, not only customers’ children, but all KDSB visitors can also join the small library and borrow reading materials for home reading free of charge.

KDSB Gallery is part of the KDSB bank culture. This gallery is created to exhibit all materials produced for gifting to stakeholders on various occasions. KDSB Gallery is at headquartered and at all KDSB Bank branches.

At the same time, customers or any member of the public who visits KDSB offices can buy those materials for souvenirs or any purpose at the original price from the suppliers.

Then their payment will be kept in KDSB’s donation box for furthering the bank’s CSR activities. So that not only the bank, but individuals also can contribute to society together.

When visitors buy many materials, KDSB can produce more products with its production partners some of which are the enterprise providing work opportunities to disabled people.

Books are the bank of knowledge. KDSB wants future youth (children) who are the future backbone of the nation to have broad knowledge through reading national and international books.

Moreover, many financial pop-up books have been sponsored with the help of KB Kookmin Card, the parent company of KDSB.

According to UNDP, traffic accidents are one of the leading causes of death and injury in Cambodia. On average, 5.4 people die every day, three-quarters of whom are motorcyclists, followed by pedestrians, family car users, and truck users. To alleviate this problem, KDSB has developed a project to install traffic mirrors on narrow roads in Phnom Penh.

This project has been consistently carried out since 2018. Thanks to the support and request of KDSB, a total of 56 traffic mirrors and two school crossing signs have been installed in various places in Phnom Penh.

We started our first Khmer’s Painting Promotion Program in 2019 to promote painting in Cambodia. To achieve our goal, we purchased paintings from two professional painting teachers and created a drawing contest. 29 children (contestants) were selected for the drawing contest while 1 to 2 family members of each child were allowed to join. We also invited the two painting teachers to give a brief introduction about painting in Cambodia to the contestants and to be the judging committee of the contest. The purchased paintings are installed in the bank headquarter for an exhibition.

This program does not only for promoting Cambodian painting, but children will also improve their imagination, innovation, and creativity skills throughout the experience of drawing pictures on their own. Moreover, we believe that through visiting our bank’s 22nd floor in this program, children will experience new thing of seeing the nice view of Phnom Penh City, which this will give them more imagination and creative thinking in return.
