Multilayer electronic component

A multilayer electronic component, comprising:

• a body including a dielectric layer and internal electrodes alternately disposed with the dielectric layer in a first direction, and including first and second surfaces opposing each other in the first direction, third and fourth surfaces connected to the first and second surfaces and opposing each other in a second direction, and fifth and sixth surfaces connected to the first to fourth surfaces and opposing each other in a third direction;
• and
• an external electrode disposed on the body,
• wherein the external electrode includes a connection electrode layer disposed on the third and fourth surfaces and connected to the internal electrodes and including a conductive metal, a band electrode layer being in contact with the connection electrode layer, disposed on a portion of the first and second surfaces and including a conductive polymer, and a plating layer disposed on the connection electrode layer and the band electrode layer, and
• the conductive metal includes at least one selected from the group consisting of palladium (Pd), silver (Ag), rhodium (Rh), and ruthenium (Ru).
