American Express (Thai) Company Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from American Express Company

American Express (Thai) Company Limited currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, the company has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives related to climate commitments. In the absence of reported emissions, it is important to note that many organisations in the financial services sector are increasingly focusing on sustainability and climate action. While American Express (Thai) has not disclosed specific commitments or initiatives, the broader industry context suggests a growing emphasis on reducing carbon footprints and enhancing environmental responsibility. As of now, American Express (Thai) does not inherit emissions data from a parent company, nor does it participate in any recognised climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). This lack of data and commitments highlights an opportunity for the company to engage more actively in climate action and transparency in the future.
