In 2024, Chong Hing Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,595,600 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 19,600 kg CO2e from Scope 1 (mobile combustion), 2,344,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (purchased electricity), and 232,030 kg CO2e from Scope 3 (waste generated in operations). The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 2,363,600 kg CO2e. For the previous year, 2023, the bank's total emissions were approximately 2,643,200 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 16,400 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 2,626,800 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions year-on-year. Chong Hing Bank's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Guangzhou Yuexiu Group Co., Ltd., reflecting a corporate family relationship. However, the bank has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The bank's GHG emissions intensity per Gross Floor Area (GFA) was reported at 80.0 kg CO2e/m² in 2022 for its operations in Hong Kong, indicating a focus on improving energy efficiency. Overall, while Chong Hing Bank has made strides in emissions reporting, it currently lacks defined reduction targets to further its climate commitments.
