Partners Group drives its climate and sustainability agenda through a robust ESG framework—highlighting that “the Board of Directors is responsible for the Sustainability Strategy” and “oversees ESG and sustainability topics at portfolio and corporate level,” while the “Executive Team mandates the Investment and Group Finance & Corporate Development teams to execute the Sustainability Strategy,” and noting that “at portfolio level, the investment teams are responsible for the identification of climate-related risks and opportunities” with ESG objectives tied to executive compensation and oversight by a “Chairman of Sustainability.” The firm also affirms a “public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.” However, we found no evidence that the company discloses any mechanisms specifically governing direct or indirect policy engagement or lobbying activities—there is no description of oversight by a named individual or committee for lobbying, no process for reviewing associations’ positions against its climate goals, nor any audit or report on climate-related lobbying activities. The company does not disclose how it aligns its advocacy with its climate strategies or who signs off on its lobbying efforts, indicating an absence of a formal lobbying governance framework.
