Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Limited	Hirose Electric Co Ltd provides limited disclosure regarding its lobbying governance processes. The company mentions that its climate change targets are "aligned with relevant trade associations in order to ensure consistency across our efforts in this area," which suggests some effort to align indirect lobbying with climate goals. Additionally, it states that its climate targets "fully meet the targets of the Paris Agreement" and that these have been "approved by our Board of Directors and published," indicating some level of oversight by the Board. However, there is no explicit description of a governance process for monitoring or managing lobbying activities, nor is there evidence of a detailed mechanism to ensure alignment of direct lobbying efforts with climate commitments. The company does not disclose any recurring review processes, specific individuals or committees responsible for overseeing lobbying alignment, or actions taken to address misalignment in trade associations. This indicates limited governance in this area. View Sources	D

Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	Hirose Electric Co. Ltd. provides no information indicating that it tries to influence climate-related public policy. The only climate-related reference is an “invested in green bonds program by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government,” which is a financing decision and not a lobbying activity. Because the disclosure names no climate policies, describes no direct or indirect engagement with policymakers or trade associations, and states no desired regulatory or legislative outcomes, the company offers no transparency on its climate lobbying.
