First BanCorp.'s reported carbon emissions

First BanCorp., headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets. Without emissions figures, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). However, the absence of documented reduction initiatives or climate pledges suggests that First BanCorp. may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the financial sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, it will be essential for First BanCorp. to establish clear commitments and targets to align with industry standards and contribute to global climate goals.
