Franklin Resources's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Franklin Resources reported total carbon emissions of approximately 42,108,290 kg CO2e. This figure includes 34,560,200 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 45,840 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 7,502,260 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. In 2023, the company’s emissions were significantly higher, with Scope 1 emissions at 11,655,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) at 22,096,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching 109,460,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable shift in their emissions profile, particularly in Scope 3, which is often the largest contributor for many organisations. Franklin Resources has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no reported Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges. The absence of such commitments suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may not yet be actively pursuing formalised reduction strategies. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that Franklin Resources, Inc. is independently reporting its carbon footprint without inherited data from a corporate family relationship.
