ESG Disclosure Mandate Puts Climate-Risk Management in Focus

At the Maeil Business ESG Club seminar, ESG management was discussed as both a corporate risk management strategy in the era of climate crisis and a key indicator for assessing future business prospects. The discussion comes as the government is pursuing a plan to phase in mandatory ESG disclosure for listed companies in Korea by 2028. The seminar highlighted that ESG disclosure can help identify a company’s sustainability and management direction.
