Since then, Fubon has grown into one of Taiwan’s largest conglomerates with presence in most major sectors of the domestic economy. In 1985, Mr. Wan-Tsai Tsai, the late founder of the Fubon Group, articulated three principles—integrity, diligence and modesty—to be followed at both the personal and corporate level. He defined integrity as the foundation for conducting oneself, diligence as the foundation for building entrepreneurship, and modesty as the foundation for cultivating one’s nature and dealing with people. Setting the example himself, Mr. Tsai had encouraged every employee to put these principles into action. Through integrity, diligence and modesty, the Group has laid the building blocks of success. For Mr. Tsai, integrity is exhibited by being trustworthy and using judgment and common sense in business decision-making. A financial company must strive to act with integrity as clients trust it to be a good steward of their assets. Without trust, a business cannot succeed. A highly-valued traditional virtue, diligence has been embedded in Fubon’s corporate culture and embraced by all employees, whose dedication and hard work enables Fubon to build leading positions in various markets. Modesty, in summary, is the quality of being humble, unpretentious, and showing leniency to others but not to oneself. For more than half a century, Fubon has solidified its presence in Taiwan while actively gaining a foothold in other Asian markets. Fubon Financial Holdings is Taiwan’s second-largest financial holding company known for its market-leading, comprehensive range of financial services. Its subsidiaries rank among the top performers in their respective sectors. In 2015, Fubon Financial Holdings again topped the industry with the best profit performance and remained the most profitable financial holding company for seven years in a row. Looking ahead, Fubon will continue to uphold its three principles and apply its four core values of integrity, sincerity, professionalism and innovation to guide management decisions. These standards of professional and ethical conduct create an obligation to develop the business for the long term, act responsibly as a corporate citizen, and bring positive energy to where it is needed. They also lay a strong foundation for continuing success as Fubon Financial Holdings advances its goal to become a first-class financial institution in Asia. 26 2015 Annual Report Wan-Tsai Tsai Founder and Chairman, Fubon Group 27 2015 Annual Report Fubon Financial Holding Co., Ltd.
