2022 Carbon footprint in CO2 tons

For more than 10 years, Banco General has been measuring its carbon footprint and has worked on different initiatives to reduce it, thanks to a specialized team and important investments.

In 2021, Banco General joined the “Reduce Tu Huella Corporativo (RTH Corporativo)” program, the first governmental program, completely voluntary, for the management of the carbon and water footprint at the organizational level in the Republic of Panama. This program has established a standardized process to identify, calculate, report, and verify the carbon and water footprint within the operational limits of public, private, and civil society organizations that are legally registered in Panama.
