Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment | Comment | Score |
---|---|---|
Limited | Genpact provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It mentions working with external groups such as The B Team, the Confederation of Indian Industry and B20 India to advocate for “harmonized ESG reporting guidelines” and references the U.S. SEC’s proposed rule “The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors,” signalling that disclosure frameworks are the main focus of its advocacy. Beyond acknowledging this general objective, the company does not identify any other climate or energy transition policies it has tried to influence, nor does it confirm that these are the only policies on which it engages. Genpact also fails to describe how it seeks to influence regulation: there is no information on letters, meetings, consultation submissions, or the specific government bodies or officials it approaches. Finally, its stated aim is confined to the broad aspiration of achieving globally consistent ESG disclosure standards, without spelling out concrete legislative changes, timelines or measurable targets. As a result, the company’s disclosure gives only a cursory view of its climate lobbying activities and lacks detail on mechanisms, specific policies or clearly defined outcomes sought. | 1 |
