IPC Systems receives SBTi validation for its greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets.
NEW YORK, September 8, 2026: IPC Systems, Inc., a global provider of financial communications and trading connectivity, announced that its emissions reduction targets have been validated by SBTi Services.
The validation confirms that the company’s targets meet the criteria of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). These include the Corporate Near-Term Criteria V5.3 and Net-Zero Criteria V1.3.
Net-Zero Target Set for 2050
IPC Systems has committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050.
The target covers Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions. It therefore extends beyond the company’s direct operations.

IPC said the targets also account for emissions linked to purchased goods and services. They include emissions associated with the use of products sold to customers.
IPC Sets 2030 Emissions Goals
Under its near-term commitments, IPC aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 35.65% by 2030.
The company also plans to cut absolute Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of sold products by 32.5% over the same period.
These targets are based on modelling using 2022 emissions data.
Long-Term Reduction Targets
IPC has also established longer-term emissions reduction goals.
The company aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 90% by 2050. It has set the same 90% reduction target for absolute Scope 3 emissions.
According to IPC, the targets cover its wider value chain rather than focusing only on its own operations.
Validation Supports Financial Sector Customers
IPC serves more than 750 financial institutions globally. The company also provides infrastructure to the majority of trading desks among the world’s top 100 banks.
The company said the validation could provide customers with greater confidence in its emissions data. This is increasingly relevant as financial institutions face growing pressure to measure and reduce value-chain emissions.
Regulators, investors and clients are also placing greater emphasis on climate accountability. As a result, suppliers are facing increased expectations around sustainability performance.
IPC to Prioritise Direct Emissions Cuts
Manuel Ibáñez, ESG Officer at IPC Systems, said the company’s targets extend beyond its own operations.
He said many IPC customers are pursuing emissions targets themselves. Therefore, suppliers must also make progress at a similar pace.
IPC said it will prioritise direct emissions reductions across its value chain. In line with SBTi criteria, any remaining emissions will be permanently neutralised before the company reaches net-zero.
The company’s validated targets are listed on the SBTi Target Dashboard.
The validation represents a significant milestone in IPC’s wider sustainability strategy. It also reflects the company’s stated commitment to reducing its environmental impact while supporting the evolving infrastructure of global financial markets.
