Shinhan Financial Group came in at 18th place on a list of the world’s 100 most sustainable companies, announced Wednesday at the ongoing World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the Seoul-based group said Thursday.

Aside from Shinhan, three other Korean companies made it to the list – steelmaker POSCO at 40th, LG Electronics at 44th and Samsung Electronics at 94th.
