XL Catlin Insurance's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from AXA SA

XL Catlin Insurance, headquartered in Bermuda (BM), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of AXA SA, which means its climate commitments and reduction initiatives are influenced by its parent organisation. As part of its climate strategy, XL Catlin Insurance adheres to the sustainability targets set by AXA SA, which include commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). These initiatives aim to align corporate emissions reductions with climate science, although specific reduction targets for XL Catlin Insurance have not been disclosed. The company is also involved in the RE100 initiative, which focuses on transitioning to 100% renewable energy, further demonstrating its commitment to sustainability. However, without specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is challenging to quantify the impact of these initiatives at the subsidiary level. In summary, while XL Catlin Insurance does not provide specific emissions data, it is committed to broader climate initiatives through its affiliation with AXA SA, focusing on sustainability and emissions reduction in line with industry standards.
