SK Group
 PROFILE
SK Group, one of South Korea's top five "chaebol" (industrial conglomerates), covers a broad spectrum of businesses through its affiliates. The company has operations ranging from energy, telecommunications, finance, construction, and hotels. Its energy and chemical arm, SK Corp., is Korea's largest petroleum refiner. Like other "chaebol" under government orders to reorganize in the wake of the Korean financial collapse of the late-1990s, SK Group is paring down its affiliates from 36 to about 20. The slimmer SK Group will focus on two core businesses: information and telecommunications (through SK Telecom), and energy and chemicals (through SK Corp.).
