In 2023, North Pacific Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 12,541,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,285,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 10,727,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 10,541,653,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions primarily stemmed from investments (10,539,301,000 kg CO2e), business travel (896,000 kg CO2e), employee commuting (1,432,000 kg CO2e), and waste generated in operations (24,000 kg CO2e). In comparison, the bank's emissions in 2022 were approximately 17,649,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,656,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 14,992,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 587,946,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, North Pacific Bank has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it report any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the figures are independently reported by North Pacific Bank, Ltd. Overall, while the bank has made strides in emissions reporting, further commitments and reduction initiatives would enhance its climate strategy.
