SunTrust Banks, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Truist Financial Corporation

SunTrust Banks, Inc., now part of Truist Financial Corporation, has not publicly disclosed specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year. As a merged entity, emissions data and climate commitments may be inherited from its parent organisation, Truist Financial Corporation. Currently, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from SunTrust Banks, Inc. This lack of specific emissions data and reduction initiatives indicates a need for further transparency in their climate commitments. As part of the financial services industry, SunTrust's climate strategy may align with broader sectoral goals, but specific details regarding their emissions scope (Scope 1, 2, or 3) and reduction achievements remain unspecified. The absence of concrete data highlights the importance of ongoing efforts to establish measurable climate commitments within the organisation.
