Samsung Card Co., Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

Samsung Card Co., Ltd., headquartered in South Korea (KR), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Samsung Life Insurance Co., Ltd., which may influence its climate commitments and initiatives. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Samsung Card Co., Ltd., it is important to note that the company is part of a broader corporate family that may have its own sustainability goals. The emissions data and climate strategies may be cascaded from its parent organization, but specific details regarding these initiatives are not provided. As a subsidiary, Samsung Card Co., Ltd. may align its efforts with the sustainability frameworks established by its parent company, which could include participation in initiatives such as RE100, aimed at transitioning to 100% renewable energy. However, without specific emissions data or reduction targets, the company's individual climate commitments remain unclear. In summary, while Samsung Card Co., Ltd. is positioned within a corporate structure that may support climate action, the lack of available emissions data and defined reduction targets limits the ability to assess its specific contributions to carbon reduction and climate commitments.
