DKB's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, DKB reported total carbon emissions of approximately 12,808,400 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,917,200 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily stem from direct operations, and 1,821,800 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, associated with purchased electricity. The most significant portion of their emissions, about 8,069,400 kg CO2e, falls under Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the supply chain, particularly from purchased goods and services, accounting for 4,739,000 kg CO2e. Despite the substantial emissions figures, DKB has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that while DKB is aware of its emissions profile, it may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As the financial sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, DKB's future strategies will likely need to align with industry standards to effectively address climate change and reduce its overall emissions.
