Score 3 - Strong
Full assessment

AECI has implemented a defined policy-alignment framework for its policy engagement, ensuring that "all its direct and indirect activities that influence policy are consistent in terms of messaging through: adherence to the SHEQ Policy and the Sustainability Strategy and Framework; adherence to the Group's Code of Ethics and Business Conduct and associated guidelines; central coordination of stakeholder engagement; and the introduction of programmes and targets to drive consistent messaging, such as the Going Green programme." The company confirms "Yes" when asked whether it has a public commitment to conduct its engagement activities "in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement." To manage alignment, AECI specifies that "if any inconsistencies are identified, these inconsistencies are raised with the Risk Committee and the Social and Ethics Committee who then implement the required actions to address the inconsistencies," demonstrating formal oversight of both direct and indirect lobbying channels. However, the company does not disclose a dedicated audit or third-party review of its climate lobbying, nor does it provide details on how it engages with or monitors its trade associations, and it does not name an individual responsible for overseeing lobbying alignment.

This assessment is part of the Lobbying Governance Index, covering 8,500 companies scored on whether they have processes to oversee their climate lobbying. See all companies in North America or all companies in United States.
