Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 2nd that it has signed an MOU with the Korea Compliance Promotion Agency and ESGI Co., Ltd. and will begin establishing a fair trade voluntary compliance program (CP rating assessment) and an integrated ESG response system for companies.

The signing ceremony held at the Daeryun Seoul headquarters branch office on the 30th of last month was attended by Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il, attorney Son Gye-jun, Korea Compliance Agency Director Lee Jeong-myeong, and ESGI CEO Yong Seok-gwang.

The Korea Compliance Agency is a certification organization that conducts certification reviews and trains auditor qualifications for corporate anti-corruption, compliance, and compliance issues based on the certification review of management systems established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In addition, ESGI is an integrated service company that provides professional knowledge and solutions for realizing ESG management, including corporate ESG consulting, CSDD consulting, and fair trade CP consulting.

Through this agreement, Daeryun plans to build an integrated solution to strengthen the company's compliance management system and improve ESG response capabilities.

Specifically, we plan to provide customized support services to companies, including ▲advising on the development of compliance and ethics training programs for executives and employees, ▲advising on sustainable management reports and certification responses, and ▲providing preliminary inspection and response manuals for legal risks related to ESG management.

Lee Jeong-myeong, director of the Korea Compliance Agency, emphasized, "Through this MOU, corporate customers will be able to receive a more sophisticated compliance system and practical training at once," and added, "The ability to prevent and respond to risks in the actual operation process will be greatly strengthened."

ESGI CEO Yong Seok-gwang said, “For companies to connect ESG management to actual management strategies, the legal, education, and implementation systems must be aligned together,” and added, “We expect that cooperation with Daeryun will be the starting point.”

Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il said, "ESG and compliance management are no longer optional when it comes to running a business, but a necessity. Based on Daeryun's corporate advisory experience, we will actively support companies to solve the two challenges of compliance and sustainability at the same time."

Meanwhile, Daeryun runs a corporate legal group and provides general advice on ethical management to companies, including establishing ethical management policies, operating compliance programs, internal investigations, and responding to government regulations.
