OCBC Bank released decarbonisation targets and priority steps for six sectors in its road to achieve the 2050 goal of net zero financed emissions.

Approximately 42% of its corporate and commercial banking loan portfolio aligns with the targeted sectors, which are specifically chosen based on their significant contribution to emissions within the value chains, OCBC found.

The bank is focusing on parts of these sector value chains that are responsible for the majority of emissions.

Moreover, OCBC takes into account the availability of established and credible reference pathways for these sub-sectors as a crucial factor in determining its sustainability efforts and financing decisions.
