In 2020, CLSA, headquartered in Hong Kong, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,262,510 kg CO2e. The emissions data primarily reflects Scope 2 emissions, with about 2,233,180 kg CO2e attributed to purchased electricity. Notably, CLSA does not disclose any Scope 1 or Scope 3 emissions data. As a current subsidiary of CLSA Limited, the emissions data is cascaded from the parent company, which is part of the broader corporate family under CITIC Securities Company Limited. However, CLSA has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. Overall, while CLSA has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of reduction initiatives or targets suggests that further action may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate accountability.
