MarketAxess Holdings Inc.'s reported carbon emissions
In 2024, MarketAxess Holdings Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 15,898,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 177,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 664,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and a significant 15,057,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major contributions from purchased goods and services (about 12,204,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 1,307,000 kg CO2e). In 2023, the company recorded total emissions of about 14,544,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 179,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) at 640,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 14,544,000 kg CO2e.

Despite these figures, MarketAxess has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all reported figures are directly attributed to MarketAxess Holdings Inc. Overall, while MarketAxess has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
