Hanwha MZ Pick Green Tech invests in domestic and international companies related to climate mitigation industries, climate crisis adaptation industries, and domestic companies expected to benefit from the Fourth Industrial Revolution.


A representative from Korea Investment & Securities said, "Considering the purpose and interests of long-term asset formation for young people, we first launched a value-type dividend stock fund and a product reflecting ESG trends," adding, "We plan to continuously discover products suitable for the Youth Sojang Fund by reflecting future demand and trends."
