In 2023, Banco Bci reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13,365,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 395,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion and fugitive emissions, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 10,567,000 kg CO2e, with the largest contributions from employee commuting (approximately 8,096,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (about 1,156,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2022, the bank's total emissions were approximately 13,117,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 599,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at around 8,759,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight increase in total emissions year-on-year. Banco Bci has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they set Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. Overall, while Banco Bci has made strides in tracking and reporting emissions, the lack of clear reduction commitments highlights an opportunity for enhanced climate action in the future.
