This figure includes 569,680 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 8,343,320 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Notably, the bank's Scope 3 emissions were significantly high, reaching about 3,285,749,430 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial impact from its value chain activities. In previous years, the bank's emissions were as follows: in 2022, total emissions were about 9,245,390 kg CO2e; in 2021, approximately 10,024,220 kg CO2e; and in 2020, around 10,514,420 kg CO2e. The data shows a general trend of fluctuating emissions, with a notable decrease from 2020 to 2021. Despite these figures, Yuanta Commercial Bank has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where financial institutions are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact and climate strategies. Overall, while Yuanta Commercial Bank has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of clear reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the bank to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
