Shinbo Establishes ESG Promotion Committee... Full-Scale ESG Management 추진

[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] On the 26th, the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund (KODIT) announced that it has established the ESG Promotion Committee and held its inaugural meeting combined with a launch ceremony to fully activate its ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) management system.

The ESG Promotion Committee serves as the deliberation and resolution body related to KODIT's ESG policies and will act as the control tower for KODIT-style ESG management going forward. It is composed of a total of 12 members, including six external members who are experts from various ESG fields and six internal members including KODIT executives.

During the meeting, various discussions were held regarding the current status of KODIT's ESG management efforts and the newly established comprehensive ESG promotion plan.

Based on the ESG achievements continuously pursued so far, such as green finance, social economy guarantees, and ethical management, KODIT established a dedicated organization, the ESG Promotion Center, in March to systematically carry out ESG management. In June, it formulated a comprehensive ESG promotion plan that comprehensively considers internal and external environments and mid- to long-term strategic frameworks.

KODIT's comprehensive ESG promotion plan includes company-wide strategies for each ESG sector. In the E (Environmental) sector, it plans to strengthen support for carbon neutrality and green finance, foster eco-friendly companies, and establish eco-friendly work processes. In the S (Social) sector, it will promote financial support in the realization of social value, create conditions for job creation, and build a safety-centered management foundation. In the G (Governance) sector, it aims to drive a customer-centered digital transformation, establish ESG governance, and prepare clean and fair management systems.

A KODIT official stated, "Our goal is to spread the ESG ecosystem through leading ESG management practices in the public sector," adding, "As a policy finance institution, we will strive to build a sustainable growth foundation for future generations."
