OFX's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, OFX reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,566,420 kg CO2e globally, with no emissions from Scope 1. The breakdown includes about 248,040 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and approximately 8,318,380 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. In Australia, OFX's emissions were significant, with Scope 2 emissions at about 193,910 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 6,167,020 kg CO2e. This highlights the company's substantial indirect emissions, primarily from its supply chain and customer activities. Despite the high emissions figures, OFX has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company’s focus appears to be on transparency regarding its emissions rather than on setting formal reduction goals. As OFX continues to operate in a climate-conscious environment, its future commitments and strategies will be crucial in addressing its carbon footprint and aligning with global climate action efforts.
