The bank's climate strategy appears to be in a transitional phase, with a grace period for compliance on targets that were due by July 31, 2023. Overall, Yes Bank's emissions data highlights the significant impact of its operations on the environment, particularly through Scope 3 emissions, and underscores the need for robust climate commitments moving forward.
