Equitable Financial Life Insurance Company's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Equitable Holdings, Inc.

Equitable Financial Life Insurance Company currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. As a current subsidiary of Equitable Holdings, Inc., any emissions data would be cascaded from this parent organisation. However, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from Equitable Financial Life Insurance Company itself. The company is part of a broader corporate family that may have climate commitments, but specific initiatives or targets related to carbon emissions have not been disclosed. As such, Equitable Financial Life Insurance Company appears to be in the early stages of establishing its own climate strategy and emissions reporting. In the context of the insurance industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction, aligning with global efforts to combat climate change. However, without specific data or commitments from Equitable Financial Life Insurance Company, it is challenging to assess their current impact or future plans in this area.
