People tend to remain complacent in keeping to what they are used to and comfortable with, and it is thus very difficult to break from old mind-sets and practices. I am well aware that our Bank of Korea staff members have made enormous efforts to adapt to the changing external environment.
However, there does remain much room for improvement still, and so we need to strengthen our dynamism for change. This can of course not be done in a day. We have to work continuously to improve the relevant systems for increasing our recruitment of external talent and promoting efficiency and competition in our personnel management.
