Limited	Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It refers to broad frameworks such as the UAE Environment Vision 2030 and the national “net-zero by 2050 ambition” and notes its role as a founding signatory to the Abu Dhabi Sustainable Finance Declaration, indicating some engagement with policy development. However, it does not name any specific bill, regulation, or government consultation it has tried to influence, nor does it make clear that these high-level strategies were the focus of active lobbying. The bank describes involvement in collective platforms like the “UAE Sustainable Finance Declaration Working Group,” the “UAE Carbon Alliance,” and participation at COP27 and COP28, yet it gives no detail on the concrete mechanisms it used—such as letters, meetings, or submissions—or which ministries, regulators, or legislators were approached. Finally, while the bank reiterates broad objectives such as “aligning portfolios with the UAE net-zero ambition,” “promoting the development of a leading carbon market,” and facilitating AED 35 billion in green financing by 2030, it does not articulate the specific policy changes or regulatory outcomes it seeks to secure through these activities. As a result, the disclosures outline general commitments and collective participation but leave stakeholders without a clear picture of the policies lobbied, the channels used, or the precise outcomes pursued.
