Molson Coors Beverage Co

Molson Coors describes a structured governance framework to align its lobbying and advocacy with its climate objectives, assigning clear oversight to senior executives and board bodies. The company states that "Our Chief Legal & Government Affairs Officer and VP Government Affairs oversee all political activity and manage our advocacy activities," and that "The Chief Legal & Government Affairs Officer is a member of the ESG Leadership Steering Committee. This guarantees the Company's engagement activities are consistent with our overall climate change strategy." It also explains that "Trade association membership is subject to senior management approval and oversight and comes with the understanding that trade associations are consensus-driven organizations," while the "Governance Committee of our Board of Directors oversees corporate and political action, including committee political contributions, and receives annual reports on political giving." These disclosures demonstrate active alignment of both direct lobbying - through designated employees, legal review and regular executive updates - and indirect lobbying via trade and industry associations. However, we found no evidence of a dedicated climate lobbying audit or third-party review, nor specific procedures for evaluating or exiting associations whose positions conflict with the company's climate commitments.
