This marks a reduction from 2023, where total emissions were about 10,396,000 kg CO2e, including Scope 1 emissions of around 1,130,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 9,266,000 kg CO2e.

Despite these reductions, Security Finance Corp. 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 operates as a current subsidiary, and its emissions data is cascaded from its parent organisation, reflecting a corporate family relationship. Overall, while Security Finance Corp. has demonstrated a decrease in emissions over the past few years, the lack of formal climate commitments or reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further engagement in sustainability initiatives.
