Main Content

As a global leader in the mining industry, we are accountable to all of our stakeholders.

We aim to be at the forefront of the pressing issues facing society today, ranging from climate change to public health.

We are proud to be advocates for what we believe is right and to work as partners to solve complex problems through our public policy engagement.

Our dealings with governments and parliaments revolve largely around the practical detail of obtaining and maintaining our licence to operate in line with our Code of Conduct but we will also express our opinion on questions around wider mining policy when called to do so.

We will explain our position on ESG (environment, social, governance) issues in response to stakeholder interest and in support of our Sustainable Mining Plan.

We believe we have a right and responsibility to speak up as an accountable member of society; at the same time, we are opposed to any system where corrupt business practices can result in unfair advantage.

Governance and infrastructure

Governance and infrastructure

That's why, we have a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that best practice is observed. 

We have a Government Relations country plan for each country where we operate which charts how we plan to engage the relevant politicians and civil servants. We do not make political donations so any funding request by or for Government is subject to particular scrutiny and the costs have to be strictly proportionate to what is to be delivered. We have a Business Integrity team and an independent Speak-Up system called “Your Voice” to catch and monitor any suspected contraventions.

Consultations and considerations

We are careful about being party to lobbying.

In 2019, 2021, 2023 and 2025 we reviewed any differences between our policy positions and those of the organisations of which we are a member, concentrating on the areas of climate change and human rights.

We have also reported on the sums of money we would attribute as having been spent in support of a certain policy outcome, eg for giving hydrogen fuel-cell technology equal footing with battery electric in low-emission transport schemes.

Industry associations

Industry associations play an important role for Anglo American around the world. Our memberships of, and partnerships with, industry associations allow us to share best practice and be well informed on relevant technical, political and social developments. They also offer a route for Anglo American’s voice to be amplified alongside peer companies in policy and other debates.

Strong governance around our memberships is crucial to ensure that we maximise the mutual benefits of our engagement and minimise any risks. How Anglo American governs our memberships is outlined in the Code of Conduct, with more detail in the Group International and Government Relations Policy and the Group Business Integrity Policy.

We are committed to being transparent about our memberships of industry associations and we publish on this page all relevant details of those memberships, including Anglo American’s financial contribution to each association. In 2024, our contributions to the marketing of diamond through the Natural Diamond Council and platinum through the Platinum Guild International totalled around US$76 million. We made contributions totalling a further US$15.5 million to all other industry associations. The amount disclosed relates to membership fees and/or other payments to associations, including programmes run by the associations, apart from where reasons of commercial confidentiality require us to withhold disclosure.

Any questions about our memberships can be directed to
