ETHICS AND GOVERNANCE

Lobbying activities 2.5.5 To roll out its strategy and for the smooth running of its activities in the countries in which it operates, Groupe Renault maintains an ongoing dialog with stakeholders: civil society, NGOs and public sector players. The arguments developed by the Group in this context are based on impact studies of draft regulations or legislation. They concern public decisions on various subjects: social, tax, road safety, the environment (including the fight against climate change). The Group’s positions are presented to public decision-makers to answer their questions or propose adjustments, making it possible to reconcile the interests of the Group, its customers, shareholders and employees, and the search for the public interest, defined according to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The approach is guided by: the Code of Ethics dedicated to interest representation activities; P European regulations (transparency register); P national regulations; in the case of France, Renault declares its P interest representatives and its actions to the High Authority for Transparency in Public Life (HATVP).

The Group is a member of a number of professional federations, in France and internationally, including: national associations of automotive manufacturers: FEBIAC, in P Belgium, ANFAC in Spain, VDIK in Germany, etc. ; in France: CCFA, PFA, AFEP, AVERE France; P in Europe: ACEA. P In 2020, the Group’s influence actions were mainly related to the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on the markets and industrial, commercial and tertiary activities. As it has done for the past 10 years, the Group has continued to call for increased support measures for electric vehicles. Despite the health crisis and its impact on the markets, the reduction in the CO 2 emissions of new vehicles (CAFE) remained a priority for the company, which did not request a postponement of this regulation in 2020. The strategy and organization implemented by the Group since 2018 have enabled it to achieve its objectives in this area (see 2.2.3.A).
