Russell Investment Group Ltd's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Russell Investment Group Ltd reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 1,010,792,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 8,018,109,000 kg CO2e. This data highlights the company's substantial carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the value chain. For the previous year, 2023, the company disclosed Scope 1 emissions of about 102,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 997,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions for this year, indicating a potential area for improvement in transparency regarding indirect emissions. Despite the extensive emissions data, Russell Investment Group Ltd has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company is currently classified as a current subsidiary, and its emissions data is cascaded from its parent organisation, reflecting a corporate family relationship. Overall, while Russell Investment Group Ltd has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
