Despite the substantial emissions figures, Vienna Insurance Group has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Vienna Insurance Group AG, reflecting the broader corporate family's performance in sustainability. Overall, while Vienna Insurance Group has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability within the insurance sector.
