Burberry Group PLC
- Named executive owner
- Trade association review
- Paris Agreement alignment
- Direct lobbying governance
Burberry's disclosures suggest a limited governance approach to climate-related policy engagement: a "Sustainability Steering Committee" that "convenes at least three times a year" and is "chaired by the CEO, who is accountable for ensuring oversight of climate-related risks and opportunities of the Group" reviews its sustainability targets, and the company has publicly committed to "conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement" and to have "signed the Fashion Charter Communique" to align its policy engagement with the Paris Agreement's 1.5 °C objective. However, Burberry does not disclose any specific procedures for reviewing or managing its lobbying activities or a named individual or committee responsible for overseeing alignment of direct or indirect lobbying efforts with its climate change strategy, nor does it describe trade association reviews, sign-off steps, or a formal lobbying governance framework.
