Yoon Jong-kyoo, the chairman of KB Financial Group, looks set to win a second term, as the group’s chairman nomination committee on Thursday selected him as the sole candidate for the next leader.

“A final decision on whether or not to recommend him to the directors’ board will be made after an in-depth interview on Sept. 26,” the group said in a press statement.

After stepping down from the bank post in 2004 due to an accounting failure, Yoon returned to KB Financial as the CFO in 2010.
