KB Securities announced on the 26th that it has released the "2020 KB Securities Sustainable Management Report" containing this information.

It explains the ESG promotion strategy called "ESG Plus I" and outlines major ESG-related achievements.


The report includes efforts to reduce carbon emissions independently, expansion of ESG investments, investment-related strategies such as issuance of ESG bonds by companies, as well as activities aimed at enhancing customer-centric financial convenience, digital financial innovation, and leading financial consumer protection. It also covers social contribution activities such as employee development, organizational culture improvement, and initiatives to promote inclusive finance.
