This figure includes 14,470,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 40,326,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to indirect emissions from the consumption of purchased electricity. Additionally, the bank's Scope 3 emissions, which cover all other indirect emissions, amounted to 31,467,000 kg CO2e.

This indicates a significant increase in emissions from 2021 to 2022. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Banque Misr has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the bank may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Banque Misr's emissions data highlights the scale of its carbon impact, further commitments and initiatives will be essential for aligning with global climate goals.
