Climate strategy

Approach and tools:


Analysis of the bank’s carbon profile and portfolio:
  • assessment of the bank’s direct emissions (Scope 1–2)
  • accounting for financed emissions (Scope 3, Cat. 15) in line with the PCAF methodology
  • identification of carbon-intensive sectors in the credit and investment portfolio
Diagnosis of climate risks and opportunities:
  • analysis of physical risks (extreme weather events, stress on assets and collateral)
  • analysis of transition risks (carbon regulation, CBAM, national decarbonisation plans)
  • identification of opportunities (sustainable finance, issuance of green bonds, ESG loans, support for low-carbon technologies)
Scenario modelling and strategic planning:
  • scenario analysis in line with TCFD and ISSB/IFRS S2
  • portfolio stress testing using NGFS/IEA scenarios
  • financial assessment of climate scenario impacts on capital, profitability and credit risk
  • identification of vulnerability areas and strategic priorities
Development of a climate strategy and roadmap:
  • formulation of targets for financed emissions reduction
  • integration of Net Zero commitments (under NZBA and GFANZ)
  • development of an initiative package: revision of credit policy, support for green projects, client engagement to reduce their carbon footprint
  • integration of climate KPIs into the bank’s risk management system and strategy
Integration and disclosure:
  • preparation of disclosures in reporting (TCFD, ISSB/IFRS S2, ESRS E1)
  • disclosure of financed emissions under PCAF
  • embedding climate objectives into corporate strategy, credit products and investment programmes
  • regular monitoring and updating of the climate strategy

Results:


  • A comprehensive climate strategy for the bank and a Net Zero roadmap.
  • Readiness for international and national requirements (ISSB/IFRS, ESRS, NZBA, CBAM).
  • Financial models and portfolio stress tests incorporating climate risks.
  • Reduced bank vulnerability through portfolio adaptation and credit policy adjustments.
  • Access to green financing and the issuance of sustainable financial instruments.
  • Strengthened trust from investors, regulators and international agencies.
