One of the major banking and financial services institutions of Southeast Asia has committed to managing its resources more responsibly. It aims to reduce the environmental footprint of its operations. The institution recognises the need for effective environmental management. This approach will enhance cost efficiency, strengthen organisational resilience and support its long-term goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
The company achieved a major milestone by reducing its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 124 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) in 2025, down from 212 metric tons of CO₂e in 2024. Notably, it also achieved a 27% reduction in its scope 1 and 2 emissions relative to the 2019 baseline.
The company's total GHG emissions also decreased, to 38,303 metric tons of CO₂e in 2025, down from 47,183 metric tons in 2019.
Energy consumption remained a top priority. The institution introduced several measures to optimise electricity usage. These efforts resulted in an 8% reduction since 2024. Overall electricity consumption dropped to 34,776,104 kilowatt-hours (kWh) in FY 2025, down from 47,851,885 kWh in 2019.
A key achievement in FY 2025 was the reduction in fuel consumption to 46,210 litres, down from 49,832 litres in FY 2024.
In addition, the company made waste management a key part of its net-zero 2050 strategy. In FY 2025, its waste-recycling programme collected 24,300 kg of materials and prevented 18% of total waste from being disposed of.
At the same time, the company improved its water-consumption data collection process to better understand usage patterns and ensure greater accuracy. In FY 2025, the company reduced water consumption to 145,450 cubic metres, down from 228,039 cubic metres in the previous year. This demonstrates the organisation’s commitment to a more sustainable future.
Together, the 2025 reduction in emissions, adoption of new clean technologies, and increased recycling mark a shift to cleaner, more efficient operations. Progress in 2025 shows environmental responsibility is now integral to daily decisions. This lays the groundwork for deeper sustainability efforts ahead.
