United Commercial Bank's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from East West Bank

United Commercial Bank, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. The bank's climate commitments and reduction initiatives are also not detailed, indicating a lack of publicly stated targets or pledges. However, it is important to note that United Commercial Bank's emissions data and performance metrics are cascaded from its parent company, East West Bank, at a cascade level of 1. This means that any relevant climate initiatives or emissions data would be derived from East West Bank's disclosures. As of now, United Commercial Bank has not established specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other recognised frameworks. The absence of reported emissions and reduction initiatives suggests that the bank may still be in the early stages of developing its climate strategy. In summary, while United Commercial Bank is part of a larger corporate family that may have climate commitments, it currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets of its own.
