Booking Holdings Inc

We maintain proactive and transparent relationships with governments and regulatory authorities. As a publicly listed company in the U.S., we fulfill our disclosure obligations through quarterly and annual filings. We report our lobbying activities to the European Union Transparency Register (and similar public databases) and make positions transparent on a public policy blog. We also contribute to debate by participating in parliamentary discussions, consultations, bilateral stakeholder meetings, events, meetings with industry associations, public policy forums, media briefings, conferences and conventions. [...] Our annual Proxy Statement and 10-K include additional information on our corporate governance; other information about relevant policies and practices can be found on our Investor Relations page.

Our Board, elected annually by our stockholders, oversees our overall sustainability strategy. Specific environmental, social, and governance (ESG) topics, including Climate, are each covered by a specific Board committee. Our Corporate Governance Committee provides oversight for our Sustainability topics, our Audit Committee maintains primary responsibility for review of sustainability metrics, and our Talent and Compensation Committee has primary oversight over Human Capital topics. The Corporate Governance Committee oversees the implementation of sustainability-related goals and progress against those goals, including our Climate Action Plan. [...] Our Sustainability Steering Committee is responsible for signing off on Booking Holdings' overall sustainability strategy, goals, and deliverables as well as the budget. The group is composed of members from the leadership team, representing various departments such as Legal, Strategy, Investor Relations, Public Affairs, and Sustainability from each of our brands, and convenes on a monthly basis. Selected members of this committee report directly to the CEO of Booking Holdings. Separately, through our Regulatory Change Management program, we maintain awareness of new regulations or changes to existing regulatory regimes that impact our business.
