Shinhan Financial Group Inducted into CDP Climate Change Response Platinum Club for Five Consecutive Years
Expansion of the Green Index System and Increased Use of Renewable Energy
Shinhan Financial Group announced on March 10 that it has been awarded the highest grade, 'Leadership A', in the Climate Change Response category at the '2025 CDP Korea Awards' organized by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Korea Committee. As a result, the company has been inducted into the Hall of Fame for eight consecutive years and the Platinum Club for five consecutive years.
The CDP is a global initiative that requests information disclosure from major companies worldwide regarding their responses to climate change, publishing annual reports based on these disclosures. It is recognized as an authoritative indicator in the global environmental sector.
Shinhan Financial Group is the only financial institution in Korea to be selected for the Platinum Club for five consecutive years. The company explained that this achievement is further recognition that its consistent efforts in responding to climate change and managing carbon reduction are at the level of global standards.
Shinhan Financial Group has strengthened its on-site execution of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management by implementing a group-wide transition finance guideline for eco-friendly transition of its asset portfolio—the first such initiative among Korean financial institutions—expanding the 'Green Index System' to measure and manage carbon emissions generated by group employees during work, and increasing the use of renewable energy, all as part of its group climate transition strategy.
