Exercise in general improves posture, if done correctly. For instance on the chest press, many people have a hard time to keep their back straight, which should be an indication that the weight is excessive. And this is the reason why many raise their legs to help prevent them from cheating.
Generally speaking, any time you engage in exercises where you stand, make sure you back is straight and do not sway. You are essentially training your muscles and bones to keep that posture.
Also balance exercises. As an example doing curls while keeping one foot airborne and the back straight, and doing exerciese on the wobble board.
And lastly, and probably most importantly, abs and lower back exercises are great for posture. Abs and lower back are the main catalyst for balance and posture.
If you have back problems, consult a doctor.
