Mirae Asset Group Chairman Park Hyeon-joo donated the entirety of his dividends from Mirae Asset Global Investments in 2025, making it his 16th consecutive year of doing so.

With the latest donation, Park has donated a total of 34.7 billion won ($23 million) since 2010, according to the group on Monday.

The chairman promised to use his future dividends "for the younger generation" in 2008 and has been doing so since 2010.

The funds will be given to Mirae Asset Group's nonprofit foundations to be used to foster human resources. The foundations include Mirae Asset Park Hyeon Joo Foundation and Mirae Asset Hope Foundation. The two foundations have put 112.7 billion won toward social welfare initiatives as of 2025.

"Mirae Asset pursues the concept of 'warm capitalism' that cares for people," a company spokesperson said. "We are trying to create a virtuous cycle where we return the values of our customers and society."

"We will continue to foster the culture of giving through a variety of social contribution activities."
