Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
Limited Realtek Semiconductor Corp has made a public commitment by stating it will "conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement," indicating a stated policy to align its advocacy with climate objectives. However, the company does not disclose any governance structures or processes for overseeing or reviewing its direct or indirect lobbying activities, such as the appointment of a specific individual or committee, regular monitoring procedures, or criteria for assessing alignment with its climate commitments, and we found no evidence of how these engagement activities are managed or audited.

Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
Limited Realtek Semiconductor provides a basic but limited picture of its climate-policy lobbying. It names one specific initiative—the 2019 “Declaration on Independent Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction of High-tech Industries” championed by the Taiwan Semiconductor Industry Association—and confirms that its engagement was channelled through direct discussions with the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Taiwan and TSIA. The company describes the mechanism as sharing “approaches, methods, opinions, and the difficulties faced during the implementation of carbon-reduction measures,” which offers some insight into how it lobbies and the government bodies it targets. However, it does not outline any additional methods of influence, nor does it detail other policies it may have addressed. The stated goals remain broad, centring on promoting “low-carbon green manufacturing” and supporting “energy conservation and carbon reduction,” without specifying the concrete legislative or regulatory changes it is seeking. As a result, while the disclosure shows that Realtek does engage with policymakers on climate issues, the overall transparency on the breadth of its policy focus, the full range of its lobbying tactics, and the exact outcomes it seeks is limited.
