Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	Kanematsu Corp’s disclosures focus on climate risk management rather than lobbying governance. Its Sustainability Management Committee “discusses the climate-related risks that are identified and evaluated by the sales divisions”, is “responsible for calculating our Group’s CO2 emissions on a regular basis”, and the Board of Directors “receives regular reports from the Sustainability Management Committee and monitors and supervises the comprehensive management of climate-related risks in our Group”. The company also notes it is “promoting initiatives to build a low-carbon and recycling-oriented society as a member of the Global Environment Committee of the Japan Foreign Trade Council, Inc (JFTC)” and will “continue to support the JFTC’s ‘Long-term Vision for Climate Change Countermeasures’”. However, we found no evidence of any governance structure, process, or designated individual or body for overseeing, reviewing, or aligning direct or indirect lobbying activities with its climate-related goals.
