The emissions data is cascaded from their parent company, Bank of America Corporation, reflecting their current subsidiary status within the corporate family. Merrill Lynch International's emissions disclosures cover all three scopes, indicating a comprehensive approach to understanding their carbon footprint. However, the absence of defined reduction initiatives or targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the financial services sector.
