In 2022, Nuveen reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,664,000 kg CO2e globally, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 1,664,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 18,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled about 62,000 kg CO2e. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, including all three scopes. Comparatively, in 2021, Nuveen's emissions were approximately 298,362,000 kg CO2e globally, with Scope 1 emissions at about 26,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at approximately 400,365,000 kg CO2e. The reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from 2021 to 2022 indicates a positive trend in their climate commitments. Nuveen's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Nuveen Investments, Inc., which is part of the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA) corporate family. This relationship influences their sustainability initiatives and reporting practices. Currently, Nuveen has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while emissions data is being tracked, strategic goals for reduction may still be in development.
