In 2022, Everbright Securities, headquartered in China (CN), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,969,000 kg CO2e. This figure comprises 115,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and about 10,854,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions. Comparatively, the company's emissions have decreased from approximately 18,789,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 23,085,000 kg CO2e in 2020, indicating a significant reduction trend over the years. The reduction from 2021 to 2022 represents a decrease of about 7,820,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Everbright Securities has not set any specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented climate pledges to further guide their emissions reduction efforts. The absence of such commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many financial institutions are increasingly pressured to establish clear climate action plans. Overall, while Everbright Securities has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of formal reduction targets suggests room for improvement in aligning with global climate initiatives.
