In 2023, Shinsei Bank Group reported no carbon emissions data, indicating a potential shift in their reporting or operational practices. However, in previous years, the bank's Scope 1 emissions showed a decreasing trend, with emissions of approximately 2,806,000 kg CO2e in 2015, reducing to about 2,425,000 kg CO2e by 2019. This represents a significant reduction of approximately 381,000 kg CO2e over the four-year period. Shinsei Bank Group has not disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of detailed climate commitments suggests that while the bank has made strides in reducing its emissions historically, it may need to establish clearer goals for future sustainability efforts. Overall, the bank's emissions data reflects a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although further transparency regarding future climate strategies would enhance its environmental accountability.
