Lobbying Governance

Fluidra provides some insight into how it governs climate-related advocacy, stating that "Fluidra ensures that the activities and initiatives related to climate change are consistent with its ESG Master Plan, Responsibility Blueprint" and that "the values of any climate-related partnering organization should align with our ESG strategy." This indicates the existence of a policy intended to keep both its own outreach and its collaborations aligned with the company’s climate objectives. Oversight is assigned to a named senior leader, as “the Executive Chairman, who is also the highest management level responsible for our climate change strategy, engages with external organizations on behalf of Fluidra,” demonstrating that a clearly identified individual is accountable for ensuring alignment. However, the disclosure does not detail a formal monitoring mechanism, frequency of reviews, or any systematic assessment of trade-association positions, nor does it describe actions taken when misalignment is found. We found no evidence of a published lobbying-alignment audit, board-level review, or specific procedures for managing direct versus indirect lobbying. Overall, the company describes a basic policy and identifies leadership oversight, but the absence of disclosed monitoring processes, corrective actions, or comprehensive reporting suggests only moderate transparency and robustness in its lobbying governance.
