Metso Oyj
- Named executive owner
- Paris Agreement alignment
- Direct lobbying governance
Metso Oyj discloses a high-level commitment to keep its external engagement "in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement" and notes that "The President's and CEO's, as well as Metso Outotec Executive Team's (MOET) responsibilities include focusing on sustainability and its management," suggesting some senior-level attention to climate-related matters. The company also states that "Sound Corporate Governance principles form the foundation for the management of the company" and that "Our mission, vision, values and our Code of Conduct guide all our operations and stakeholder interaction." However, the disclosure does not spell out any specific mechanism for monitoring or reviewing lobbying activities, makes no reference to how direct advocacy or participation in trade associations is assessed for climate alignment, and does not identify a dedicated committee or process that oversees lobbying compliance. As such, while the public commitment to Paris-aligned engagement indicates an intention to align climate lobbying, the company does not disclose the concrete governance structures, monitoring procedures, or corrective actions that would demonstrate a more robust approach.
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 Europe or all companies in Finland.
