CNH Industrial scores poorly mainly due to high-risk marks in discriminatory philanthropy and employment protection, reflecting identity-based policies that the report says override merit-based practices. Although its political funding and direct political actions are rated low risk, its overall advocacy bias and occasional focus on partisan issues push the company's composite rating into the high-risk category.
