SEJONG -- South Korea will become a non-regional partner of the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI), a regional lender of Central American nations, in August, officials said Tuesday.
In January last year, South Korea joined the multilateral lender and provided $630 million to the CABEI for a 9 percent stake in the lender.
A non-regional member could become a partner of the CABEI if its stake is above 8 percent, according to Seoul's finance ministry.
South Korea and the CABEI have pledged to bolster ties throughout various aid programs.
