In the Environmental (E) category, Kakao Games received an "A" (Excellent) grade. This reflects the company's efforts to establish a disclosure system that analyzes and releases information on the financial impact of climate change on the company, as well as to provide annual environmental education for employees.


In the Social (S) category, the company set mid- to long-term goals for information security and personal data protection, and obtained international standard certifications (ISO 27001 and 27701), thereby strengthening its information security management system to a global level. As a result, it maintained its industry-leading status by receiving an "A+" (Outstanding) grade, the same as last year.


The Governance (G) category, which also received an "A" grade, was recognized for establishing a company-wide risk management system and creating an internal audit organization, which enhanced risk response capabilities and transparency in governance. Kakao Games also explained that it made further efforts in responsible management, such as increasing the proportion of female outside directors to enhance board diversity.



A Kakao Games representative stated, "We are continuously strengthening our ESG management to provide responsible services to users worldwide," adding, "We will continue to advance our systematic strategies and execution capabilities to spread a 'sustainable play' environment together with various stakeholders."
