The bank has made commitments to reduce its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives were not disclosed. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Standard Bank is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised strategies in place to achieve specific reductions. Overall, Standard Bank's emissions data highlights the significant environmental impact of its operations, particularly in Scope 2 emissions, which primarily arise from purchased electricity. The bank's ongoing efforts to address climate change will be crucial in aligning with global sustainability goals.
