Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Moderate	Casio Computer Co Ltd has implemented a process for ensuring that its indirect engagement through trade associations is consistent with its climate commitments but provides no detail on governing direct lobbying or on oversight responsibilities. In particular, the company confirms that it “一般社団法人日本経済団体連合会ならびに、業界団体である電機・電子４団体活動にメンバーとして参加しています,” and that “これら団体の活動は「パリ協定」と一致する事を確認しており、当社活動とも矛盾しない事を確認しており、これらの活動を通して、間接的に政府政策に影響を与えています,” demonstrating an active effort to review association activities against the Paris Agreement. It also states “Yes” when asked if it has a public position to conduct its engagement “in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.” We found no evidence of a named individual or committee overseeing these checks or of any mechanism for monitoring the company’s own direct lobbying efforts.
