Standard Insurance Company's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from StanCorp Financial Group, Inc.

Standard Insurance Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. However, the company is part of a corporate family that includes StanCorp Financial Group, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. As a current subsidiary, Standard Insurance Company inherits climate-related initiatives from its parent organisation, Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company, at a cascade level of 2. While specific reduction targets or achievements are not detailed, the company is aligned with broader industry efforts to address climate change. Standard Insurance Company has not publicly committed to specific Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or disclosed any climate pledges. This lack of data suggests that while the company may be engaged in sustainability efforts, it has yet to formalise or communicate specific carbon reduction strategies. In summary, Standard Insurance Company is currently in a position where it does not report its own emissions data or specific climate commitments, relying instead on the broader initiatives of its parent company and corporate family.
