Tokyo Tatemono discloses only limited information on how it governs policy-related advocacy. It states that it has "a public commitment ... to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement" and explains that it "participate[s] in major initiatives in and outside Japan" such as the Japan Climate Initiative and the Japan Climate Leaders’ Partnership, noting that "information acquired through participating in these initiatives ... [is] utilized in our initiatives related to climate." This demonstrates an intention to align its external engagement with its climate strategy, which indicates some governance of lobbying alignment. However, while the company describes a broader sustainability structure—"the Tokyo Tatemono Group established the Sustainability Committee, chaired by our president and CEO," which "meets ... to deliberate and discuss matters related to the formulation of the Group’s sustainability policies"—these descriptions do not explicitly cover how lobbying or trade-association positions are monitored, reviewed, or approved. We found no evidence of a formal process that assesses the consistency of either direct lobbying or industry-association advocacy with the company’s climate policy, no description of corrective actions or escalation procedures, and no identification of a committee or individual specifically tasked with overseeing lobbying alignment. The disclosure therefore shows only a high-level commitment rather than a detailed governance framework for climate lobbying.
