UBS Europe SE's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from UBS Group AG

UBS Europe SE currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The organisation is a current subsidiary of UBS Group AG, which means that any relevant emissions data or climate commitments may be cascaded from its parent company. UBS Group AG has made significant strides in its climate commitments, including participation in the CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) and initiatives like RE100, which focuses on transitioning to 100% renewable energy. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for UBS Europe SE have not been detailed in the available information. As a subsidiary, UBS Europe SE aligns with the broader sustainability goals set by UBS Group AG, which may include industry-standard climate terminology and practices. The lack of direct emissions data suggests that UBS Europe SE is still in the process of establishing its own specific targets and reporting mechanisms. In summary, while UBS Europe SE does not currently report its own emissions data or specific reduction targets, it is part of a corporate family that is actively engaged in climate initiatives and sustainability efforts through UBS Group AG.
