Despite these reductions, Dexia has not established specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented reduction initiatives. The emissions data is cascaded from the parent company, Dexia, indicating a corporate family relationship that influences their reporting and climate commitments. As a current subsidiary, Dexia's emissions data reflects its operational impact on climate change, but further commitments or pledges towards sustainability have not been disclosed.
