They are also working towards achieving net zero emissions by 2050.

More recently, NAB Group has set a target for a 72% reduction in market-based Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, compared to a 2022 baseline. NAB's reporting for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions is primarily based on its own operations, while Scope 3 emissions include various upstream categories such as purchased goods and services. It is noted that data for "scope_3/purchased_goods_and_services" is consistently listed as missing across several reporting years. NAB's climate data is not cascaded from a parent organisation, with performance and initiative sources originating from "National Australia Bank Limited."
