SC Jeil Bank "Join Carbon Neutrality and Receive Asset Management to Create Forests" View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-seop] SC First Bank announced on the 1st that it will hold a 'Good Forest Project' event for customers who are highly interested in practicing carbon neutrality and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investment.


This project allows customers to participate by joining the carbon neutrality declaration and subscribing to ESG asset management (WM) products. SC First Bank will participate by planting trees in the digital forest created on its online site and in the 'SC First Bank Good Forest' established in Daegwallyeong under the customer's name.


If the number of customers participating in the carbon neutrality declaration on the project homepage exceeds 3,000, SC First Bank will plant 1,000 trees. For customers who subscribe to ESG products, one tree will be planted under the name of the first 2,000 subscribers. When customers subscribe to asset management products above a certain amount, a Japanese yew plant will be delivered to their home as a pet plant. One tree will also be planted in the forest under the customer's name. In the forest to be created in April next year, customers can verify their names through a QR code on a plaque.



Jang Ho-jun, Head of Retail Banking Group at SC First Bank, emphasized, "Carbon neutrality and sustainable investment in response to global climate change are promises to future generations that can no longer be delayed," adding, "We hope the Good Forest Project will be a good opportunity for customers to practice carbon neutrality themselves and take the first step in ESG investment, which is the core of sustainable investment."
