UBS Securities LLC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from UBS Group AG

UBS Securities LLC, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The organisation is a current subsidiary of UBS Group AG, and any emissions data or climate commitments would be inherited from this parent company. As of now, UBS Securities LLC has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other recognised frameworks. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the firm may be relying on broader commitments made by UBS Group AG, which operates at a higher corporate level. UBS Group AG has been active in climate-related initiatives, including participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and commitments to renewable energy through the RE100 initiative. However, specific details regarding emissions reductions or climate pledges at the subsidiary level remain unspecified. In summary, while UBS Securities LLC is part of a larger corporate structure that engages in climate initiatives, it currently lacks detailed emissions data and specific reduction commitments at its own operational level.
