Despite these figures, Allied Irish Banks has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments. The emissions data is cascaded from AIB Group plc, reflecting the bank's current subsidiary status within the corporate family. Overall, while Allied Irish Banks has disclosed substantial emissions data, their climate strategy appears to lack defined reduction goals, which is critical for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
