OFX's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, OFX reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,682,130 kg CO2e. This figure includes 280,650 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, while Scope 1 emissions were recorded at zero. The majority of their emissions, about 8,401,480 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, indicating significant indirect emissions associated with their value chain. In 2023, OFX's total emissions were slightly lower at approximately 8,566,420 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at 248,040 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at about 8,318,380 kg CO2e. This data reflects a commitment to transparency in their emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, OFX has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may suggest an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability. Overall, OFX's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the bulk of their carbon footprint, while also indicating a need for more robust climate commitments moving forward.
