Lotte Chemical Corp

ISIN: KRA0111701C7 | South Korea | Asia-Pacific
Score 3 - Strong
Full assessment

Lotte Chemical Corp has established a structured governance process for climate lobbying by entrusting the Environment Management Team - "directly under the CEO reporting line" - with leading both "direct and indirect policy engagement efforts are aimed at supporting the development of government greenhouse gas reduction methodologies and committing to active participation in the K-ETS." This assignment by the CEO ensures that policy engagement objectives "are in alignment with our overall climate change strategy as defined by the CEO, the Board, and the ESG Committee," and that "any and all engagement objectives are also designed with the entire company (including all business divisions) in mind," demonstrating oversight of direct lobbying with policymakers and alignment of indirect engagement. However, we found no evidence of a publicly available audit or third-party review assessing the alignment of its climate lobbying activities.

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.
