NIPPON EXPRESS HOLDINGS INC

NIPPON EXPRESS HOLDINGS INC has established high-level sustainability oversight but provides only limited detail on how it governs climate-related lobbying. For external engagement, "the Company intends to participate in engagement activities related to climate change that are consistent with its climate change strategy through industry associations and other organizations," and it confirms a "public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement." Internally, it notes that "we have established the Sustainability Promotion Committee for the purpose of promoting the sustainability management of NX GROUP," which is "chaired by the President & CEO of NIPPON EXPRESS HOLDINGS, INC." and includes executive officers and sustainability leads, and "reports the results of these discussions to the Board of Directors at least once each quarter." However, the company does not disclose any specific processes for monitoring or managing its direct or indirect lobbying activities, nor does it specify how industry associations' policy positions are reviewed or aligned with its climate commitments. We found no evidence of a formal policy to review lobbying activities or dedicated criteria for assessing participation in associations whose stances might conflict with the Group's climate strategy.
