In 2023, Habib Bank Limited (HBL) reported significant carbon emissions, with a total of approximately 12,103,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 emissions in Pakistan. Globally, the bank's emissions included about 4,782,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 10,753,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 7,253,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3, which includes business travel emissions of approximately 7,147,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, HBL has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests that the bank may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate commitment framework. As HBL continues to operate in a rapidly evolving climate landscape, it is essential for the bank to establish clear sustainability goals and reduction targets to align with global climate standards and enhance its environmental responsibility.
