Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Limited Amer Sports provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It identifies one concrete measure it has engaged on – the EU-level “Ecodesign for Sustainable Products” initiative – and otherwise refers generically to “future EU sustainability initiatives,” “decarbonisation,” and “low-carbon manufacturing,” without naming further laws or regulations. The description of how it lobbies is similarly cursory: the company says it engages through “FESI working groups” covering topics such as corporate responsibility, product compliance, trade and winter sports, and it notes collaboration with industry bodies like FESI and Protect Our Winters, but it does not spell out whether this involves written submissions, meetings or other channels, nor does it name the government departments or legislators that are the targets of these efforts. Finally, the company’s objectives remain broad; it states that it “supports” the Ecodesign regulation “with minor exceptions” and aligns its lobbying with the Paris Agreement and a net-zero 2050 ambition, yet it does not explain the specific amendments it seeks or the precise policy outcomes it is pursuing. Taken together, these disclosures leave considerable gaps in understanding the company’s climate-policy lobbying activities. 1
Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Limited Amer Sports indicates its intention to ensure alignment between its policy engagement and its climate objectives, stating it "is planning to set company-wide science-based emissions reduction targets in the next two years" and that "a commitment to align engagement activities with our climate strategy and goals will be made"; it also confirms a public position to conduct its engagement in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement ("Yes"). However, the company does not disclose any formal governance structure or specific individual responsible for reviewing or approving its policy engagement, nor does it outline any defined procedures for monitoring or managing direct or indirect lobbying, and we found no evidence of a published audit or detailed policy that explicitly governs how its lobbying activities are aligned with its climate strategy. 1
