Lobbying Governance

Power Finance Corp Ltd provides only minimal insight into how it governs its policy-advocacy activities. The company acknowledges Principle 7 of its Business Responsibility framework, stating that “"Businesses, when engaged in influencing public and regulatory policy, should do so in a responsible manner."” and notes that “"The BR activities of the Company are overseen by a Functional Director and the Board also reviews the Business Responsibility Report as part of Directors’ Report on annual Basis."” This indicates that a named senior executive and the full Board have an annual review role for activities that include policy advocacy, which suggests some oversight of lobbying. However, beyond this high-level description the company does not disclose any specific mechanisms, procedures, or criteria for monitoring or aligning either its direct lobbying or its participation in trade associations with corporate or climate goals; we found no reference to climate-related lobbying, no description of how lobbying positions are approved or tracked, and no evidence of audits, alignment reviews, or escalation processes. Accordingly, while the disclosure shows a limited oversight structure, the absence of detail on processes, climate integration, or indirect-lobbying governance points to a very modest level of transparency and control over lobbying activities.
