Bayfirst Financial has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company’s emissions per employee were approximately 1,270 kg CO2e in 2022, a decrease from about 3,470 kg CO2e in 2021, suggesting a shift towards more efficient operations relative to its workforce. As a financial institution headquartered in the US, Bayfirst Financial is positioned within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and climate commitments. However, without defined reduction targets or climate pledges, the company may need to enhance its strategies to align with broader industry standards and expectations for environmental responsibility.
