The Scope 3 emissions were primarily driven by purchased goods and services (about 12,177,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 268,000 kg CO2e). In 2022, the bank's emissions were slightly lower, totalling around 15,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 131,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 593,000 kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 15,977,000 kg CO2e. The bank's emissions have shown fluctuations over the years, with a notable total of approximately 1,198,000 kg CO2e in 2021, which included 38,300 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 299,500 kg CO2e (Scope 2, market-based), and 860,200 kg CO2e (Scope 3). Despite these figures, Arbejdernes Landsbank has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while the bank has made strides in reporting its emissions across all scopes, further commitments and reduction initiatives would enhance its climate action profile.
