In 2023, Beazley reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,000 kg CO2e, with no specific breakdown into Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions available. The previous year, 2022, saw Beazley’s emissions total approximately 5,158,650 kg CO2e, which included 65,200 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1,027,790 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and 4,073,960 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Notably, the majority of Scope 3 emissions were attributed to business travel, amounting to approximately 3,774,550 kg CO2e. In 2022, Beazley’s UK operations reported Scope 2 emissions of about 135,280 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 2,407,490 kg CO2e, indicating a significant reliance on business travel for their carbon footprint. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from parent organizations. Beazley is committed to transparency in its climate impact, as evidenced by its annual reports, but lacks defined reduction targets or initiatives at this time. The absence of specific climate pledges or SBTi targets suggests that while Beazley is aware of its emissions, it has yet to formalise a comprehensive strategy for reduction.
