During the General Meeting, Thierry Léger, Chief Executive Officer of SCOR, announced further enhancements to the Group’s sustainability strategy.

To align with the Paris agreement and with the science-based trajectory of 1,5°C1, SCOR has set its first interim target relating to companies having their headquarters in Europe for its Property & Casualty direct insurance and facultative reinsurance books of business (commercial lines as per the PCAF2 perimeter when reliable data is available). Using the PCAF methodology (version 1 dated November 2022), SCOR aims to achieve a reduction of 23% in the intensity of its GHG3 emissions by 2030 versus the end of 2022.

SCOR will make all reasonable efforts to reach its interim target of -23% by 2030. Achieving this target, however, is highly dependent on externalities outside of SCOR’s control. The actions and policies of different governments, and the transition of all stakeholders toward decarbonization of the real economy, are all crucial to align the world to the Paris agreement. Other factors linked to climate science, political, geopolitical, economic and regulatory developments which are outside of SCOR’s control may impact SCOR’s ability to deliver on its target. Without decisive and global action by governments, SCOR will not be able to achieve its target, and the world will not be able to reach a 1.5°C trajectory.
