Gulf Insurance Group's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Gulf Insurance Group, headquartered in Kuwait (KW), reported no specific carbon emissions data, indicating a lack of disclosed emissions figures across all scopes (Scope 1, 2, and 3). This absence of data suggests that the organisation has not yet established a comprehensive emissions inventory or reporting framework. Despite the lack of specific emissions data, Gulf Insurance Group is committed to addressing climate change, as evidenced by their participation in initiatives such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, there are currently no publicly stated reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their accountability and transparency in climate action.
