This indicates a substantial increase in emissions in 2023, particularly in Scope 3 categories. NIBC Bank has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no reported SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets. The emissions data is cascaded from NIBC Bank N.V., which is a current subsidiary of NIBC Holding N.V. This relationship may influence the bank's overall climate strategy and reporting practices. Overall, NIBC Bank's emissions profile highlights the need for enhanced climate action and potential strategies to mitigate its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of its total emissions.
