Qatar Development bank (Q.S.C.C.)'s reported carbon emissions

As of 2013, Qatar Development Bank (Q.S.C.C.) reported significant carbon emissions, with a total of approximately 5.76 billion kg CO2e attributed to Scope 1 emissions. This figure highlights the bank's direct greenhouse gas emissions from its operations. However, there is no available data for Scope 2 or Scope 3 emissions, indicating a lack of comprehensive reporting on indirect emissions associated with energy consumption and the supply chain. Currently, Qatar Development Bank has not established any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in recognised climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This absence of formal commitments suggests that the bank may be in the early stages of developing a structured approach to climate action and emissions reduction. Overall, while the reported emissions data provides a snapshot of the bank's carbon footprint, further transparency and commitment to climate initiatives will be essential for aligning with global sustainability goals.
