💡 What do investors expect companies to disclose of their political engagement?

Our recent webinar, “Global update: investor expectations on corporate political activities and lobbying,” highlighted the growing - yet unmet - demand for greater transparency and accountability in corporate political engagement. Key points included:

🔍 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝗼𝗯𝗯𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱: Companies must ensure their political activities are open and accountable, extending beyond climate issues to all policy areas.

🌱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴: Ongoing greenwashing litigation could serve as a template to challenge corporate political activities that are misaligned with stated company objectives and public policy.

👥 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗹𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: Institutional investors play a key role in promoting responsible practices that align with long-term sustainability goals.

📑 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲: Strong support exists for mandatory lobbying disclosures to ensure corporate boards uphold transparency.

⚖️ 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 & 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: While mandatory measures face challenges, voluntary standards and strategic litigation remain essential tools for advancing accountability.
