The oil industry lobby has enjoyed significant wins under Donald Trump. And now Exxon has an ask on European regulation- our Financial Times story this morning.... ExxonMobil says the Trump administration should use trade talks with Brussels to fight tough new EU climate and human rights regulations that threaten US companies with “bone-crushing penalties”. Darren Woods, Exxon’s chief executive, said the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive threatened to entangle US companies in bureaucracy, erode their global competitiveness and ran counter to President Donald Trump’s deregulation agenda. Exxon has consistently lobbied against the regulation, due to be phased in from 2027, which will require EU and non-EU companies with significant turnover in the bloc to ensure that their supply chains do not harm the environment or human rights. EU member states will be allowed to impose fines of up to 5 per cent of global turnover on companies found to be in breach of the law. “This is counter, frankly, to everything the Trump administration has been trying to do on the regulation front . . . As the US administration eases US regulatory burdens on companies here in the US, it is being replaced by EU climate regulations,” Woods told reporters on a conference call as the company published its quarterly results. “It is going to tangle them up in more bureaucratic red tape in Europe . . . and subject [companies] to bone-crushing penalties, so that’s a big issue that is yet to be addressed, and hopefully will as part of these [trade] negotiations.” free link https://on.ft.com/4fhv0GZ ExxonMobil European Commission

In today's FT Moral Money newsletter, we play a bit of spot the difference. As Donald Trump's administration takes aim at diversity, equity and inclusion schemes, US companies are engaging in various sorts of verbal contortions, trying to have their cake and eat it. They’re dropping references to “diversity” and “equity”, terms with racial and gender undertones that infuriate Donald Trump’s administration, while still hoping to convey a sense of openness and decency to customers and employees. Many seem to have settled on “inclusion” as a safely vague word to fall back on (if that still seems a bit risqué, there are alternatives like “belonging”, now favoured by Walmart). The starkest decline, according to new research from The Conference Board and ESGAUGE, has been in DEI-related uses of the word "equity". That concept — at least as framed by the Biden administration — emphasises the need to address historic disadvantages faced by marginalised groups. Interestingly, some companies seem to think that “diversity” is relatively safe to say — like J.P. Morgan, which now talks about “diversity, opportunity and inclusion”. Amazon, meanwhile, has quietly shifted the spotlight to the diversity of its customers, rather than that of its staff... Read the full story here: https://on.ft.com/4mrtfJU
