Rabobank's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Rabobank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 48,800 kg CO2e from Scope 3, alongside 1,900 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 64 kg CO2e from Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of about 12,200 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2. The bank's emissions data for 2023 is currently unavailable, indicating a potential focus on enhancing their climate strategies. Rabobank has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, which suggests a need for further commitment to climate action. The absence of defined reduction goals may reflect the broader industry context, where financial institutions are increasingly pressured to align with global climate standards and demonstrate accountability in their emissions reporting. Overall, Rabobank's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the majority of their carbon footprint. As the bank continues to evolve its climate commitments, stakeholders will be keen to see future disclosures that outline specific reduction strategies and targets.
