Global conflict is at its highest level since World War II. In 2024, there was a 25 percent increase in violent events compared to 2023. [1] A record number of civilians are being harmed by advanced and conventional weapons systems, with civilian deaths in conflict surging 40 percent [2] and 123 million people forcibly displaced in 2024. [3] The private sector is increasingly identifying CAHRA as a salient and material risk. A survey of 1,200 CEOs indicated 97 percent of respondents had altered investment plans due to geopolitical volatility. [4] Another study found that 84 percent of the world?s 26 largest investors identified ?geopolitical confrontation? as a top three systemic risk. [5] Palantir?s Human Rights Policy (HRP) states the company has ?been committed to defending human rights since (its) founding in 2003,? including alignment with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. [6] However, Palantir provides software and services to state militaries and agencies with documented records of violating human rights and IHL violations. In 2019, Palantir took over Google?s contract for Project Maven ? an AI-driven system that uses machine learning to identify enemy assets by analyzing intelligence data from surveillance sources. [7] Project Maven has been deployed across the Middle East and Africa, and U.S. drone strikes in these countries have been linked to violations of IHL. [8] , [9] Palantir also provides AI-driven predictive policing systems to Israeli military and security forces for the surveillance of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. [10] This exposes the company to allegations of knowingly enabling and profiting from Israel?s war and occupation, characterized by systematic human rights abuses and IHL violations. [11] Palantir has been identified as the third-largest contractor for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) [12] , providing custom-built platforms to aggregate data from public and private sources. [13] These tools are linked to controversial ICE practices, including family separation, deportations, and surveillance of immigrant and citizen communities. [14] The requested report will offer investors insight into how the company manages risks associated with violations of its HRP, UNGPs, OECD Guidelines, and international law, while providing Palantir with an opportunity to better align with its peers and mitigate material risks.
