Wendel SE

Wendel SE provides only limited insight into how it governs climate-related lobbying. It states that it has a "public commitment ... to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement" and explains that "Scalian has various charters, guides and codes for its buildings, purchases, events and investments" whose "proper use is subject to an audit programme overseen by the CSO." These statements show a high-level policy intention and identify the Chief Sustainability Officer as an internal reviewer, suggesting some oversight of external engagement. However, the company does not disclose how it distinguishes or manages direct versus indirect lobbying, gives no information on reviewing or aligning trade-association positions, and offers no detail on specific monitoring procedures, escalation steps, or board-level involvement. Consequently the available disclosure indicates only a basic commitment and audit mechanism rather than a detailed governance framework for lobbying alignment.
