It has also been listed on the "DJSI World" for ten consecutive years.

LG Electronics explained that it received high evaluations in areas such as environmental policies and systems, crisis management, innovation management, and eco-friendly products in this assessment. The DJSI is a sustainability evaluation and investment index that comprehensively considers not only economic performance but also ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) aspects for over 2,500 global companies based on market capitalization each year. Companies that receive the highest scores in each of the 61 sectors are selected as best companies, and companies in the top 10% of each sector are included in the DJSI World.

LG Electronics is promoting ESG management with the vision of "Life's Good," which means "aiming for a better life for all," by maximizing positive environmental impact, pursuing inclusive growth where companies and society coexist, and continuing trustworthy management activities.

Earlier, LG Electronics was also included in the FTSE4Good Index, a socially responsible investment index created by FTSE International, jointly owned by the Financial Times (FT) and the London Stock Exchange (LSE), for seven consecutive years this year.
