Jordan Islamic Bank's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Al Baraka Group B.S.C.

Jordan Islamic Bank, headquartered in Jordan (JO), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The bank is a current subsidiary of Al Baraka Group B.S.C., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Jordan Islamic Bank, it is important to note that the bank's sustainability initiatives may be aligned with those of its parent company, Al Baraka Group B.S.C. This relationship suggests that any climate strategies or emissions data could be inherited from the parent organization, although specific details are not provided. As a part of the financial sector, Jordan Islamic Bank is likely to be influenced by industry standards and practices regarding climate commitments, but without specific data or targets, it remains unclear how the bank is addressing its carbon footprint.
