Our Bank's future goals in all dimensions are discussed in detail in the TSKB Integrated Annual Report.

TSKB broke new ground in the Turkish banking sector with its “Climate Risks Report”, published in 2021, taking into account the TCFD recommendations.

The featured targets in our Climate Risks Report are:

  • To finalize the end-to-end integration of the climate risks in our loan portfolio by 2023
  • Maintain the weighting of SDG related loans in the total portfolio at 90% until 2025
  • Providing USD 8 billion in financing in connection with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations by 2030
  • Within the scope of carbon-neutral banking, to achieve a 63% reduction in Scope 1 direct emissions by 2035.
  • To continue the practice of neutralising carbon emissions by only using renewable energy in the activities that are under Scope 2 which takes into account emissions arising from electricity consumption.
  • Creating a roadmap for value chain emissions which are under Scope 3 by taking national and international standards into account.
