Deutsche Bank Transition toward a sustainable and climate-neutral economy Non-Financial Report 2022 In-house ecology Greenhouse gas emissions GRI 2-4, 305-1/2/3/5 An environmentally extended economic input output (EEIO) model has been used to estimate the emissions in Scope 3 categories 1, 2 and 4 based on the amount spent in each economic sector, and these cover 79% of emissions reported in the table below. Emissions in the bank’s value chain (all Scope 3 excluding investments) amounted to around 1.725 million metric tons of CO e 2 in 2022, a decrease of 4.2% compared to 2021, largely due to the reduced spend on use of IT services. Employee commuting, which also includes emissions of employees working from home, decreased over the last year, which is a direct impact of the return to the office after the pandemic.

The previous year is always adjusted to January to December. Average uncertainty is +/- 10% for all KPIs. Some KPIs have changed more than +/- 10% in 2021 due to the extraordinary nature of the effect of the pandemic on the operations of the bank’s business and buildings in previous years. 2 There are several reasons for changes to prior-year figures: updated power grid factors, updates to historical data (such as billing updates), and methodology changes 3 Total emissions are based on actual, estimated, or extrapolated data, including all market-based Scope 1 and 2 emissions and relevant categories 1 to 14 of Scope 3 emissions. All assumptions and calculation methodologies are in line with the ISO 14064 Standard Guidelines with supporting documentation. The emission factors have been used for each activity data type, from internationally recognized sources, such as DEFRA/BEIS (2022), GHG Protocol, eGRID (2022), and IEA (2022), RE-DISS (2020), or, if more relevant, from country or contract specific sources. The factors include all GHGs and the gases’ Global Warming Potential pursuant to IPCC AR5 assessments. 4 The Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard was used to calculate Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Categories 1, 2 and 4 where CEDA emission factors are used include adjustments for changes in inflation. All reported years now use CEDA Global emission factors for Germany instead of United States used in previous reporting years. 5 The GHG emission data disclosed for employee commuting/working from home decreased over the last 2 years, which is a direct impact returning to the office after the pandemic 6 Ad-hoc branch visits not included 7 Not disclosed for 2022 as immaterial 8 Categories 11 and 12 rely on calculating emissions from the number of customers, and these data are based on customer numbers in Germany only 9 Downstream leased assets of Postbank are not included in this data 65
