Limited |
Electronic Arts has established a clear lobbying governance process through an “internal government affairs team that reports to EA’s General Counsel” and a “Political Engagement Policy [that] was approved by EA’s General Counsel and reviewed with the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board.” This team “monitors compliance with this policy and reports EA’s compliance, and any exceptions, to the Nominating and Governance Committee annually,” demonstrating regular oversight for direct and indirect advocacy. For indirect lobbying, EA explains that “EA’s government affairs group engages with these associations to ensure they represent EA’s core interests,” and that “membership and participation in these associations also is reported annually to the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board,” with semiannual disclosures of dues used for political contributions by trade associations. However, the company does not disclose any mechanisms or processes specifically addressing the alignment of its lobbying with climate-related objectives or any climate-focused monitoring procedures or third-party audits.
