Despite these substantial emissions figures, Bank of Cyprus has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they disclosed any science-based targets (SBTi) or climate pledges. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that the figures are independently reported by Bank of Cyprus Holdings Public Limited Company. Overall, while Bank of Cyprus has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, further commitments to reduction targets would enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards.
