Woori Financial Group has released its sustainability report detailing its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) management achievements and climate-related disclosures.

On June 30, Woori Financial announced the publication of its '2025 Sustainability Report,' which outlines the company's ESG management performance and key strategies over the past year. The group publishes a sustainability report annually to disclose its ESG-related management status.

This year's report was prepared in accordance with global disclosure standards, including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), reflecting the demands of stakeholders such as investors. GRI provides international guidelines for sustainability reporting.

Notably, this year, Woori Financial issued a separate 'Climate and Nature Integrated Report' to strengthen its disclosure framework related to climate change and natural capital. The climate report applies the Korean Sustainability Standards Board's disclosure criteria for the first time, laying the groundwork for compliance with future domestic sustainability disclosure mandates.

Additionally, Woori Financial has published a separate 'Special Report' detailing its initiatives in ESG finance, consumer protection, and financial artificial intelligence (AX) transformation.

Woori Financial Chairman Im Jong-ryong stated, "We will expand support for productive finance, inclusive finance, and climate finance, and create sustainable value through transparent and trustworthy management."

Meanwhile, Woori Financial has achieved recognition in both domestic and international ESG evaluations. It has been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) for two consecutive years, as selected by S&P Global, and received a leadership rating from the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The company also maintains a top rating in Bloomberg's ESG assessment.
