John Hancock Investment Management Distributors, LLC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Manulife Financial Corporation

John Hancock Investment Management Distributors, LLC, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The organisation is a current subsidiary of Manulife Financial Corporation, which means any climate commitments or emissions data would be inherited from this parent company. As a part of its climate strategy, John Hancock Investment Management Distributors, LLC aligns with the sustainability initiatives of Manulife Financial Corporation. However, there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges reported at this level. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing its own distinct climate commitments. Given the cascading nature of data from Manulife Financial Corporation, any future emissions reporting or climate commitments will likely reflect the broader goals set by the parent organisation. As such, stakeholders should monitor developments from Manulife for insights into the climate strategies that may eventually be adopted by John Hancock Investment Management Distributors, LLC.
