Zhongan has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no documented climate pledges or SBTi targets. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that it is independently reported by Zhongan Online P & C Insurance Co., Ltd. Overall, while Zhongan has reported its emissions, the absence of reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the insurance sector.
