E.SUN Financial Holding Earns 12th Consecutive Inclusion in Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices

TAIPEI, Taiwan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--E.SUN Financial Holding has been selected for the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices (DJBIC) for the 12th consecutive year, setting a new benchmark for Taiwan’s financial sector. The latest results, released by S&P Global, are based on companies’ performance in the Corporate Sustainability Assessment. E.SUN achieved its highest-ever CSA score, ranking among the top 1% of global banks, and was included in both the DJBIC World Index and the DJBIC Emerging Markets Index.

Widely regarded as a key global ESG benchmark, the DJBIC draws from over 12,000 invited companies annually, with only around 3,500 qualifying for inclusion. This year, just 25 banking institutions were selected for the World Index, underscoring E.SUN’s sustained competitiveness and strong integration of sustainability into its core operations.

In the latest CSA, E.SUN received high recognition across critical areas including financial inclusion, human rights, customer relations, transparency and disclosure, materiality analysis, and policy influence. Notably, it achieved the highest score in the banking sector for decarbonization strategy. Beyond traditional financing, E.SUN positions itself as a “transition enabler,” supporting clients from carbon management to transformation planning. Over the past five years, it has led ESG initiatives, conducted more than 300 in-depth corporate consultations, and developed a Sustainability Transformation Platform connecting 21 professional partners across areas such as supply chain management, green manufacturing, renewable energy, net-zero technologies, and third-party verification.

E.SUN continues to align with international standards. In the Carbon Disclosure Project 2025 ratings, it achieved leadership-level scores across climate, forests, and water, earning A ratings in climate and forests and an A- in water in its first assessment. This reflects not only strong climate risk management but also the establishment of robust nature-related risk frameworks.

Chairman Huang Nan-chou said, “A strong ESG strategy is a strong banking strategy.” He noted that 12 consecutive inclusions reflect both global recognition and a long-term commitment. Going forward, E.SUN will continue leveraging finance to support corporate transition and drive decarbonization and innovation.
