Yuanta Group has demonstrated leadership in green finance by coordinating efforts across domestic and overseas offices in South Korea, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines, rallying nearly 90 supplier partners to join the “Earth Hour” lights-out initiative to protect the planet. On the evening of March 28, from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m., we will synchronize with the global effort by switching off the exterior lights of Yuanta Financial Plaza for one hour. Also through flash mob environmental events, we aim to promote and implement a low-carbon lifestyle.

“Earth Hour” is a global, voluntary carbon reduction initiative launched by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) in 2007. Currently, 192 countries and regions participate, with more than 18,000 landmarks around the world taking concrete actions to support and respond to the campaign. Last year (2025), people from all walks of life across Taiwan answered back “Earth Hour,” saving a total of 298,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 147 metric tons—equivalent to the annual carbon absorption capacity of 13,410 large trees. For six consecutive years, Yuanta Group has taken part in “Earth Hour,” actively supporting the use of renewable energy and installing renewable energy generation systems to integrate green energy into our operations. In 2025, Yuanta Group consumed a total of approximately 6.52 million kilowatt-hours of green electricity, reducing carbon emissions by about 3,088.2 metric tons—comparable to the annual carbon absorption capacity of 8.22 Da’an Forest Parks—as we continue to advance toward the goal of net-zero emissions and sustainability.

Yuanta Group is leveraging our influence to promote sustainability. This year (2026), we have partnered with nearly 90 suppliers to join in “Earth Hour,” building our commitment to sustainability through concrete actions. To further energy conservation, we organize flash mob environmental events to raise awareness about energy and water conservation as well as recycling labels. We encourage our colleagues to choose environmentally friendly products and fulfill our responsibilities as global citizens. We also incorporate the “Green Point” program launched by Taiwan’s Ministry of Environment as a reward for participation, helping to embed green consumption practices into everyday purchasing decisions.

With a sustainability vision of “becoming an international benchmark enterprise for sustainability, integrating with society, coexisting with the Earth, and jointly creating a better future,” Yuanta Group continues to align operational strategies with international trends. For six consecutive years, Yuanta Financial Holding Company (FHC) has made the A List on the CDP’s climate disclosure, and has been ranked at the “Leadership Level” for eight years in a row. Furthermore, Yuanta FHC has been featured in The Sustainability Yearbook for seven straight years and has been honored as a Top 1% outstanding enterprise four times, establishing ourselves as a driving force for social and environmental change through steady and solid performance.
