Banco Votorantim S.A.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Banco Votorantim S.A. reported emissions data indicating a focus on carbon offsetting through its core business of financing used vehicles, with an estimated offset of approximately 6.5 kg CO2e per tonne. However, the bank has not disclosed specific figures for Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3 emissions, nor has it set any formal reduction targets or climate pledges. As a current subsidiary, Banco Votorantim S.A. inherits its emissions data and climate commitments from its corporate family, but no specific targets or initiatives have been outlined in the available data. The absence of disclosed emissions figures suggests a need for enhanced transparency and commitment to climate action within the financial sector. Overall, while Banco Votorantim S.A. is engaged in carbon offsetting through its financing activities, it currently lacks comprehensive emissions reporting and reduction strategies, which are critical for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
