Overview of ESG Evaluation
Introduction of ESG Evaluation
'Sustainable management' is a phrase that has undoubtedly become a 21st century global issue.
Sustainable management is derived from 'sustainable development', which is defined as "Development that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs" in the report 'Our Common Future’ published by the World Commission on Environment and Development in 1987.

The term ‘ESG’ stands for environment, society, and governance, and is a key factor the UN PRI (UN Principles for Responsible Investment) urges companies to consider when making investment decisions. Sustainable management is meant to enhance company stability through transparent governance, to help analyze each company's impact on the environment and society, and to help companies make a positive impact so they may achieve sustainable growth in the long run.
Goals of ESG Evaluation
the Korea Institute of Corporate Governance and Sustainability (KCGS) has developed its own ESG evaluation model to enhance the social responsibility of listed companies in Korea. It is meant to encourage ESG-centric activities while promoting responsible investment by investors. This model follows international standards such as ISO26000, etc., but as a Korean evaluation model taking into account the needs of Korean companies, it aims to provide information on principles and standards for socially responsible management.
ESG evaluation supplements the evaluations of social and environmental categories in existing governance evaluations in order to promote and enhance the sustainable development of listed corporations in Korea.
