OFX's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, OFX reported total global emissions of approximately 8,566,420 kg CO2e, with no emissions recorded under Scope 1. The breakdown of emissions includes about 248,050 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and a significant 8,318,380 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Regionally, OFX's emissions data for Australia indicates approximately 193,910 kg CO2e in Scope 2 and about 6,167,020 kg CO2e in Scope 3. In New Zealand, Scope 2 emissions were about 1,700 kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions reached approximately 91,980 kg CO2e. Other regions, including Canada, the UK, and the US, also contributed to the overall emissions, with Scope 2 emissions ranging from about 1,570 kg CO2e in Canada to approximately 16,810 kg CO2e in the US. Despite the substantial emissions figures, OFX has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their sustainability strategy. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that OFX Group Limited independently reports its emissions. Overall, OFX's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the majority of their carbon footprint, while also indicating potential areas for improvement in their climate action commitments.
