In this work, we adopt multiple prompting, chain-of-thought reasoning, and in-context learning strategies to guide GPT-4 in solving ESG classification tasks. We rank second in the Korean subset for Shared Task ML-ESG-3 in Impact Type prediction. Furthermore, we adopt open models to explain their calibration and robustness to different prompting strategies. The longer general pre-training correlates with enhanced performance in financial downstream tasks.
