Taishin Financial Holding discloses several climate-related oversight bodies, stating that “The Board of Directors has ultimate responsibility for the company’s overall risk management,” that a CSR Committee “is executed to report to the Board of Directors,” and that an Environmental Sustainability Committee “regularly reviews the appropriateness of existing environmental sustainability policies.” While these quotes demonstrate board-level attention to climate and sustainability issues, they are framed around internal risk management rather than the governance of lobbying or public-policy advocacy. The only direct reference to aligning external engagement with climate goals is the confirmation that the company maintains “a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.” This commitment signals intent but the disclosures provide no detail on how lobbying positions are monitored, who has formal oversight of policy advocacy, how direct or trade-association lobbying is assessed for alignment, or what actions are taken when misalignment is identified. Consequently, the available evidence indicates a limited disclosure of lobbying-governance measures rather than a defined, monitored process for climate-lobbying alignment.
