SBI Shinsei Bank Ltd confirms that it has a “public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” answering “Yes” to that question. The company does not disclose any details regarding how these commitments are governed, as there is no description of oversight bodies, named individuals, or processes for monitoring or aligning its direct or indirect lobbying with its climate policy. We found no evidence of a structured lobbying review process, board sign-off, or trade-association alignment procedures. This indicates that, while the bank has articulated an intention to align engagement with the Paris Agreement, it does not disclose any internal governance mechanisms to ensure that its lobbying activities adhere to this commitment.

SBI Shinsei Bank offers only limited insight into its climate-policy lobbying. It notes participation in the government-led “GX League” and refers to its use of external frameworks such as the Climate Transition Finance Handbook and the Poseidon Principles, indicating it is engaging with the broad policy agenda around carbon neutrality, but it does not identify any specific laws or regulations it has attempted to influence. The bank provides no description of how it seeks to influence policymakers—there is no mention of meetings, submissions, letters, or the particular ministries, regulators, or legislators it approaches. The objectives it sets out are high-level corporate ambitions, such as achieving net-zero financed emissions by 2050 and promoting transition finance; it does not spell out concrete legislative changes or policy outcomes it wants governments to adopt. As a result, the disclosure reveals only general engagement themes without detail on mechanisms or the precise policy outcomes sought.
