In 2024, Wintrust Financial reported total carbon emissions of approximately 17,698,900 kg CO2e, comprising 2,899,900 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 14,799,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This represents a slight decrease from 2023, where total emissions were about 18,606,700 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 3,189,200 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 15,417,500 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Wintrust Financial has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. As the financial services industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Wintrust's commitment to transparency in emissions reporting will be crucial for aligning with industry standards and stakeholder expectations.
