Sk Securities's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, SK Securities has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures for the years 2019 to 2021. However, the company has set ambitious climate commitments, including near-term targets aligned with a 1.5°C pathway. By 2030, SK Securities aims to cover approximately 16% of its total investment and lending activities under its portfolio targets, which are designed to address greenhouse gas emissions from its operations (Scopes 1 and 2). In terms of emissions intensity, the company reported a greenhouse gas emissions intensity of about 0.00054 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2019, decreasing to approximately 0.00041 kg CO2e per unit of revenue by 2021. This indicates a positive trend towards reducing emissions relative to revenue generation. While SK Securities has not committed to a net-zero target, its current initiatives reflect a proactive approach to climate action within the financial sector, focusing on significant reductions in its operational emissions and investment practices.
