The Scope 1 emissions include mobile combustion (176,000 kg CO2e), fugitive emissions (777,000 kg CO2e), and stationary combustion (148,000 kg CO2e). Scope 2 emissions are entirely attributed to purchased electricity, while Scope 3 emissions encompass employee commute (1,723 kg CO2e), purchased goods and services (3,104 kg CO2e), waste generated in operations (15,000 kg CO2e), and fuel and energy-related activities (1,573 kg CO2e). Hellenic Bank's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Hellenic Bank Public Company Limited, with additional performance data sourced from Eurobank Ergasias Services and Holdings S.A. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. The bank's commitment to addressing climate change is evident through its comprehensive emissions tracking, although it lacks formal reduction targets as per the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. This positions Hellenic Bank within the broader context of financial institutions increasingly recognising the importance of sustainability and climate action.
