Our verdict

StoneX publishes almost no environmental data that we could read: no emissions figures, renewable-energy use or nature-risk information, and no financed or facilitated emissions for its commodity and brokerage business. Its annual report says it is building measurement of its office and data-centre footprint. Board oversight of sustainability exists, but its sustainability report was not readable to us.

StoneX scores 20/100 (Significant gaps) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Nobody can pay to change a score, speed it up or hide it. Last verified October 2026.

That places StoneX joint 973rd of 1,023 companies scored, and joint 59th of 61 in Financial Services / Banking.

Financed emissions
Banks and insurers that don't publish the emissions of the lending, investment or insurance they finance get a size multiplier of no more than 0.70×. This company publishes no such figure, so the 0.70× floor applies.
