In 2023, OFX, headquartered in Australia, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,566,420 kg CO2e. This figure includes 248,050 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions and a significant 8,318,380 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, indicating a heavy reliance on indirect emissions sources. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 1 emissions. OFX has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it participate in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate action within the organisation. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that OFX Group Limited independently reports its carbon footprint. As the company continues to grow, addressing its substantial Scope 3 emissions will be crucial for improving its overall sustainability profile.
