The company has demonstrated a commitment to sustainability, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. Emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Vienna Insurance Group AG, indicating a corporate family relationship that influences its reporting and sustainability strategies. VIG's emissions data reflects a consistent approach to measuring and reporting carbon footprints across multiple years, with a notable focus on Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. The absence of specific reduction targets suggests that while VIG is tracking its emissions, it may not yet have formalised ambitious climate commitments or initiatives in line with industry standards.
