Anz Bank's reported carbon emissions

As of 2023, ANZ Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 67,761,000 kg CO2e in Australia and about 3,602,000 kg CO2e in New Zealand, encompassing Scope 1 and 2 emissions. In the previous year, 2022, the emissions were approximately 79,787,000 kg CO2e in Australia and 4,429,000 kg CO2e in New Zealand. Globally, ANZ's emissions have shown fluctuations over the years, with a total of about 203,700,000 kg CO2e in 2020, which included significant contributions from Scope 1 (13,462,000 kg CO2e), Scope 2 (122,331,000 kg CO2e), and Scope 3 emissions (69,606,000 kg CO2e). Despite these figures, ANZ has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The bank's emissions intensity for electricity generation assets financed in Australia has been reported, reflecting its engagement in climate-related financial disclosures. Overall, while ANZ Bank has made strides in tracking its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
