Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FIS) — ESG & Values Scores

Environment story

FIS discloses limited quantitative environmental data. No Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3 emissions are disclosed in the 10-K; renewable electricity percentage is undisclosed. The company acknowledges climate change risks and regulatory requirements but provides no net-zero target year or credible decarbonization roadmap. Risk factors emphasize compliance costs and stakeholder expectations around sustainability but offer no specific mitigation initiatives or verified investments in physical decarbonization. The company appears to treat environmental compliance as a regulatory burden rather than a strategic operational priority. Lack of transparent emissions reporting and missing net-zero commitments result in penalties.
