In 2022, LGT Bank (Switzerland) Ltd. reported a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity of approximately 2,500 kg CO2e per employee. This figure reflects the bank's commitment to monitoring its carbon footprint, although specific total emissions data for Scope 1, 2, and 3 are not disclosed. The emissions intensity has shown a progressive increase from about 500 kg CO2e per employee in 2018 to 2,500 kg CO2e in 2022, indicating a need for enhanced sustainability measures. LGT Bank has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which suggests that while the bank is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions. The emissions data is cascaded from the parent organisation, LGT Group, reflecting a corporate family relationship that influences its sustainability reporting. Overall, LGT Bank (Switzerland) Ltd. is in the early stages of addressing its climate commitments, with a focus on understanding and reporting its emissions rather than implementing aggressive reduction strategies at this time.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
LGT Bank (Switzerland) Ltd. is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
