Comparatively, in 2022, the bank's total emissions were around 13,020,000 kg CO2e, indicating a reduction in emissions from the previous year. The Scope 1 emissions in 2022 were approximately 1,114,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were about 11,906,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalled around 16,138,000 kg CO2e.

The Scope 3 emissions for that year were around 22,849,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Bank of Cyprus has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, and there are no SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets reported. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the figures reflect the bank's direct operations. Overall, while Bank of Cyprus has made strides in reducing its emissions over the past few years, the absence of formal reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
