PROFILE |
 |
Pohang Iron & Steel Co. (POSCO) is one of the world's largest steel producers. The company makes hot- and cold-rolled steel products (plate steel, stainless steel, hot strip, and wire rods), which it sells to the auto and shipbuilding industries. POSCO's subsidiaries also include POSCO Engineering & Construction (which builds steel plants, steel-related infrastructure, and energy facilities) and POSDATA (systems integration). The South Korean government has privatized its remaining stake in POSCO, thus ending POSCO's 30-year monopoly in steelmaking. Stung by its falling share price, POSCO has formed a strategic alliance with rival Nippon Steel.
