Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Strong	Fujitsu Ltd appears to have established a strong governance framework for aligning its lobbying activities with its climate strategy through a structured monitoring and oversight process. It states that "we are monitoring. Using monitoring data, the Department of Environment, which promotes environmental management throughout the Fujitsu Group, is responsible for analyzing whether direct and indirect policy collaborations are consistent with the Group's climate change strategy," indicating coverage of both its direct advocacy and its indirect engagement via industry associations. The company explains that "the results of the analysis are presented and discussed by the Sustainability Management Committee, which is chaired by the CEO and composed of the heads of business groups, regions, and sustainability departments, which meets periodically twice a year," demonstrating high-level oversight by a named formal body. Additionally, Fujitsu confirms "Yes" to having a "public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement," reinforcing its policy alignment. However, we found no evidence of a publicly available dedicated climate-lobbying audit or third-party review that evaluates its policy collaborations, nor does the company detail criteria or processes for adjusting its participation in associations with conflicting positions, indicating room for greater transparency and rigor in its disclosures.

Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Comprehensive	Fujitsu provides extensive and precise information on every aspect of its climate-policy lobbying. It names a range of concrete measures it has tried to influence, including Japan’s “Draft Sixth Basic Energy Plan,” the “Green Growth Strategy,” the Ministry of Environment’s “Green Recovery” package, the development of a “Carbon Tax and Emissions Trading System,” and the government’s energy-mix review. The company explains how it lobbied: it held a “direct dialogue with the Minister of Environment through JCLP,” issued an “opinion statement for the G7 Ministers’ Meeting on Climate, Energy and Environment,” submitted a public comment on the draft Basic Energy Plan, and released proposals to the Japanese government via the Japan Climate Leaders’ Partnership, clearly identifying each target institution. Fujitsu is equally explicit about the results it seeks, calling for “a 50 % renewable energy ratio by 2030,” the “early phase-out of inefficient coal-fired power plants,” “carbon pricing that encourages the rapid expansion of cost-effective decarbonization technologies,” “100 % ZEVs in new passenger car sales by 2035,” and policies that enable corporate power-purchase agreements. This level of detail demonstrates a comprehensive degree of transparency in disclosing its climate-related lobbying activities.	A
