Hyundai Department Store Co Ltd

ISIN: KR7069960003 | South Korea | Asia-Pacific
Score 2 - Moderate
Full assessment

Hyundai Department Store discloses that its "ESG department and the ESG Promotion Council" "constantly monitors eco-friendly policies, systems, and laws, including climate change," and that, "through cooperation with the government (Ministry of Environment) and related civic groups, we are comprehensively reviewing our ESG management response strategy and participation level." This shows a defined internal process and a named body responsible for checking whether the company's external engagement aligns with its climate commitments, indicating some governance structure beyond mere compliance. Nevertheless, the company does not disclose any specific criteria, frequency, or public reporting on how it evaluates either its direct lobbying or its involvement in trade associations, nor does it describe steps taken to correct or exit misaligned advocacy. As a result, while there is evidence of monitoring and oversight, the transparency and detail of the lobbying-governance framework remain limited.

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 Asia-Pacific or all companies in South Korea.
