Limited SK Chemicals Co Ltd discloses a “public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” indicating it has at least articulated its intention to align lobbying with climate objectives. However, the company does not provide any details on how this commitment is governed—there is no description of oversight structures, named individuals or committees responsible for reviewing or enforcing the commitment, nor any processes for monitoring or managing its direct or indirect lobbying activities against those Paris-aligned goals.

Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
Limited SK Chemicals provides a basic level of transparency on its climate-policy lobbying. It identifies one specific policy focus—the Republic of Korea’s “Emissions trading scheme”—and locates this engagement within the broader category of “Climate change mitigation,” but it does not indicate whether this is the only climate measure on which it lobbies. The company clarifies the mechanism and target of that engagement, explaining that it "meets the policy officers of the Ministry of Environment of Korea, which manages the emissions trading scheme, regularly (once a year) and non-regularly." However, it describes only this single mode of contact and names no additional channels or jurisdictions. On desired outcomes, SK Chemicals says discussions cover "the difficulties of current regulations and the agenda for future regulations, and ways for companies to achieve Net Zero by reducing carbon emissions more quickly," and characterises its stance as "Support with minor exceptions" aligned with the Paris Agreement, but it does not spell out concrete policy changes it is advocating. Together, these disclosures show limited but clear information on one lobbying interaction while leaving most details about broader activities, mechanisms and specific objectives unaddressed.
