PrivateBancorp, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce

PrivateBancorp, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is part of a corporate family that includes the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), from which it inherits emissions data and climate commitments. As a merged entity, PrivateBancorp, Inc. aligns its climate initiatives with those of CIBC. However, no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been documented for PrivateBancorp, Inc. itself. The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing its own climate strategy or may rely on the broader commitments of its parent organisation. In summary, while PrivateBancorp, Inc. does not currently report specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is associated with CIBC, which may influence its future climate commitments and performance.
