Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Comment Score
None Central Retail Corp PCL’s disclosures outline a comprehensive ESG and climate change governance structure but make no reference to any governance framework for lobbying activities. For instance, the company states that "The Corporate Governance and Sustainability (CGSD) Committee provides oversight of compliance and promotion of climate change and other sustainability issues under the Company’s ReNEW Strategy," yet there is no mention of how lobbying or engagement with policymakers is governed. The disclosures also note that "One of the areas covered by the Company’s anti-corruption policy is political participation, which prohibits the Company from rendering political support or expressing political inclination" and that "The Company can support trade associations only in terms of membership fees and expenses for organizing activities," with membership in the Thai Chamber of Commerce and the Federation of Thai Industries. We found no evidence of any mechanism or process to review or manage the alignment of these association activities or any other lobbying efforts with the company’s climate-related goals, nor is there a named individual or committee assigned to oversee or audit lobbying activities. 0
