Deutsche Telekom AG

Deutsche Telekom AG has implemented a collaborative internal process to align its policy engagement and industry-association activities with its climate objectives, although it does not disclose a dedicated oversight individual or formal governance body. In particular, the company points to "intensive cooperation between Group Corporate Responsibility, Corporate Communications and Politics and Regulatory affairs" and "regular meetings between regulatory affairs and group corporate responsibility" to ensure that "all positioning against politics, regulation and within in industry associations is fully aligned to DT's sustainability approach & climate targets and strategy". It further notes that "sustainability experts are representing DT in various associations, as e.g. within the GeSI Board or as Cahir of the ETNO Environmental Working Group" and confirms a public commitment "to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement". These disclosures demonstrate active management of direct and indirect lobbying channels, but the absence of a named individual or formal sign-off process and no information on audit or review mechanisms limit visibility into how governance responsibilities are assigned and enforced.
