This data reflects a comprehensive assessment of their carbon footprint, including direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1), indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity (Scope 2), and other indirect emissions in the value chain (Scope 3). COFIDE's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Corporación Financiera de Desarrollo S.A., indicating a corporate family relationship that influences its climate reporting. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented for COFIDE, nor are there any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. The organisation's commitment to addressing climate change is evident through its emissions disclosures, but further details on reduction strategies or future targets are not available at this time.
