carbon footprint and reduction strategy

alrajhi bank continued improving its performance in its carbon footprint and reduction strategy by formally compiling and calculating its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This effort has given the bank a clearer understanding of its emissions profile and supports more effective management and oversight of its environmental impact. The bank’s greenhouse gas inventory has been prepared in accordance with the GHG Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (GHG Protocol). The operational boundary covers all owned and leased assets across the bank’s footprint in Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Kuwait, and Jordan, including branches, offices and ATM networks. This boundary reflects the locations where alrajhi bank has operational control and therefore the ability to measure and manage emissions across its activities.

In 2025, alrajhi bank’s total GHG emissions reached 130,178 MTCO₂e, with an emissions intensity of 5.27 MTCO₂e per employee.

Scope 1 emissions mainly came from refrigerant use, fire suppression systems, diesel used in backup generators, and fuel for company-owned vehicles. Scope 2 emissions were primarily due to electricity consumption across the bank’s various facilities.

Below is a detailed breakdown of alrajhi bank’s 2025 GHG emissions by scope and category.

* The Scope 2 emissions data for the year ending 31 December 2024, has been revised due to an improvement in data availability and methodology for the CY24 energy consumption data. The CY24 emission intensity number has been revised accordingly.
