Korea Investment & Securities Co., Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Korea Investment Holdings Co., Ltd.

Korea Investment & Securities Co., Ltd., headquartered in South Korea (KR), currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. Furthermore, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges, which suggests a lack of formal commitments to reducing its carbon footprint. It is important to note that Korea Investment & Securities Co., Ltd. is a current subsidiary and may inherit emissions data and climate initiatives from its parent organisation. However, no specific data or targets have been cascaded from a higher corporate level, such as SBTi or CDP, indicating that the company is not currently aligned with these industry-standard climate frameworks. In summary, while Korea Investment & Securities Co., Ltd. is part of a broader corporate family, it has yet to disclose any emissions data or set reduction targets, reflecting a potential area for future development in its climate commitments.
