On 10 February 2014, the bank agreed on share-swap to make it a subsidiary of KGI Financial Holding Corporation (CDF) and officially became CDF subsidiary on 15 September 2014. CDF acquired Cosmos Bank at the cost of NT$23.09 billion.[1][2]

From this point on, CDIB's Corporate Banking and Financial Markets were ceded to KGI Commercial Bank.[7]
