Better Health for All

-60

Gravity Co., Ltd. was fined 2.5 million won in April for providing false information about loot box probabilities in its game, Ragnarok Online.

1
This occurred after the Revised Game Industry Act, enacted in March 2024, mandated disclosure of such probabilities.
2
The company's core business is gaming, which often involves loot boxes that can be associated with addiction.
3
However, there is no evidence of specific efforts to reduce the addiction potential of its games or support recovery, beyond the regulatory requirement for disclosure.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

-10

GRAVITY Co., Ltd. is a game developer and publisher.

1
And its core business does not involve lending, insuring, moving, or storing money for consumers. Therefore, many KPIs related to financial services are not applicable, as the company does not offer consumer credit products, generate or manage customer finance data, or operate as a regulated lender. The company's own interest expense, such as 135 M KRW in 2024, relates to its corporate debt, not consumer debt products.
2
The company does offer a Gravity Financial Literacy System (GFLS) which provides digital literacy, entrepreneurship training, and financial education to youth aged 15-24 (including out-of-school and secondary students) and primary school students (grades 1-8).
3
This program is deployed in local schools and community centers and is accessible on mobile phones, tablets, and computers.
4
While the program targets underserved learners in urban and rural areas, the articles do not provide specific data on the percentage of customers reached or measurable outcomes, which are required for higher scores.
5
Without specific reach or outcome data, it aligns with basic information available without structured programs or outcome tracking. The GFLS's multi-device compatibility relates to the accessibility of the learning platform, not the complexity of financial products, which the company does not offer.

The provided articles primarily focus on 'Gravity' as a CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) accredited solutions provider, offering services for environmental disclosure and carbon accounting to other companies.

1
While these articles highlight Gravity's role in the broader climate reporting ecosystem, they explicitly state that no specific quantitative or qualitative data is provided regarding GRVY.US's own environmental performance as a game developer and publisher.
2
The articles do not contain information on GRVY.US's greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy usage, water consumption, waste diversion rates, or any other planet-friendly business metrics.
3
Therefore, no KPIs can be scored based on the evidence provided.
