In 2023, State Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 742,732,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 217,272,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 742,732,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 46,299,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This represents a significant reduction from previous years, as total emissions were about 1,283,216,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 1,305,510,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The bank's emissions profile shows a consistent focus on reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are primarily associated with direct operations and energy consumption. For instance, Scope 1 emissions decreased from 553,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to 217,272,000 kg CO2e in 2023, indicating a proactive approach to minimising direct emissions. Despite these reductions, State Bank has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of formal targets suggests that while the bank is making strides in reducing its carbon footprint, there is potential for further commitment to structured climate action and transparency in its sustainability efforts. Overall, State Bank's emissions data reflects a positive trend towards lower carbon emissions, aligning with global efforts to combat climate change, although further commitments could enhance its sustainability profile.
