National Housing Bank's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, the National Housing Bank reported a revenue of approximately USD 237,132,957, but specific carbon emissions data for that year is not disclosed. The emissions data for 2024 is also unavailable, indicating a lack of reported emissions figures in kg CO2e for both years. The organisation has not specified any Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor has it set any reduction targets or climate pledges. This absence of information suggests that the National Housing Bank may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As the financial sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, the National Housing Bank's future climate initiatives and transparency in emissions reporting will be crucial for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
