Inherited from Legal & General Group Plc

Legal & General Capital Investments Limited, headquartered in the United Kingdom, has set ambitious climate commitments, although specific carbon emissions data is currently unavailable. The company has established near-term targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), aiming for a 1.5°C pathway by 2030 and 2026, respectively. These targets encompass greenhouse gas emissions from company operations, specifically Scopes 1 and 2, and are designed to support the broader goal of limiting global warming.

This commitment reflects a significant focus on sustainability within the financial sector, particularly in banks and diverse financial institutions. As a current subsidiary of Legal & General Group Plc, Legal & General Capital Investments Limited's climate initiatives are cascaded from its parent organization, which provides a framework for emissions reduction and sustainability efforts. While the company has not yet committed to net-zero emissions, its targets are consistent with the necessary reductions to mitigate climate change effectively.
