Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Moderate	Alps Alpine provides evidence of a structured internal process for overseeing climate-related engagement, noting that "the environmental department formulates measures, is deliberated by the environmental promotion meeting, and then approved by the officer in charge of the environment. The result of the deliberations are reported to the board of directors", which establishes clear approval steps and board reporting. The company also shows that it seeks alignment when it chooses industry platforms, explaining that JEITA’s 2030 target is reflected in its own goals and that in 2022 it "joined the Japan Climate Leaders' Partnership (JCLP)… to \"achieve the 1.5°C target by realizing a rapid transition to a decarbonized society\"", indicating some active alignment of indirect lobbying through trade associations. These disclosures identify specific oversight bodies and a mechanism for ensuring consistency with climate objectives, signalling moderate governance strength. Nonetheless, the company does not disclose how it monitors or corrects the climate positions of all its trade associations, nor does it describe any governance covering its own direct lobbying activities, leaving the scope and depth of its lobbying governance relatively limited.
