Clearstream Banking S.A.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Deutsche Börse AG

Clearstream Banking S.A., headquartered in Luxembourg (LU), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The organisation is a current subsidiary of Deutsche Börse AG, which influences its climate commitments and reporting practices.
