Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Comment Score
None The Bank of East Asia provides extensive information about its own net-zero commitments and participation in voluntary frameworks, but its disclosures contain no evidence that the bank has tried to influence any specific climate-related law or regulation. The report does not identify a single policy or legislative proposal, describe any direct or indirect lobbying channels, name any governmental bodies or officials it has approached, or state what regulatory outcomes it seeks. Instead, the disclosure is limited to internal targets and general alignment with industry initiatives, offering no transparency on climate-policy lobbying activity. 0
Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Comment Score
None Bank of East Asia Ltd/The does not disclose any governance process specific to lobbying activities. The available evidence focuses solely on ESG oversight, noting, for example, that “the Bank’s goals, developed by our ESG Work Group members and approved by our Board ESG Committee, are monitored throughout the year by our ESG Steering Committee,” with gratitude expressed for “the members of the Board ESG Committee for their vision and leadership on this key issue.” We found no evidence of any policy, review mechanism, or named individual or formal body responsible for overseeing direct or indirect lobbying, nor any process to align or monitor lobbying activities with climate or other policy goals. 0
