With a commitment to integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into financial decision-making, UNEP FI offers unique resources and frameworks that empower institutions to align their operations with sustainable development goals. Notable achievements include the development of the Principles for Responsible Banking, which sets a benchmark for sustainable banking practices globally.

Unepfi's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, the United Nations Environment Programme - Finance Initiative (UNEPFI) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,240,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure represents the organisation's global emissions, although specific breakdowns into Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions were not disclosed. Currently, UNEPFI does not have any publicly stated reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of reduction initiatives suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. As a current subsidiary of the United Nations Environment Programme, UNEPFI's emissions data is cascaded from its parent organisation, which may influence its overall climate commitments and strategies. The organisation's focus on climate-related financial initiatives indicates a commitment to addressing climate risks, although specific actions and targets remain unspecified.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Unepfi is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
