Hua Nan Commercial Bank's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Hua Nan Financial Holdings Co., Ltd.

Hua Nan Commercial Bank, headquartered in Taiwan (TW), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The bank's climate commitments and reduction initiatives are inherited from its parent company, Hua Nan Financial Holdings Co., Ltd., which operates at a cascade level of 1. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges available for Hua Nan Commercial Bank, it is important to note that the bank is part of a broader corporate family that may have established sustainability initiatives. The lack of direct emissions data suggests that the bank is still in the process of developing its own comprehensive climate strategy. As a current subsidiary, Hua Nan Commercial Bank's climate actions may align with the overarching goals set by Hua Nan Financial Holdings Co., Ltd., which could include participation in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, specific details regarding these initiatives or any measurable targets have not been disclosed. In summary, while Hua Nan Commercial Bank has not provided specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is positioned within a corporate structure that may influence its future climate commitments and sustainability efforts.
