Governance

As a company that strives to create the future, we are committed to meeting the expectations of our various stakeholders, including customers, shareholders, employees, and local communities. We do this by improving management efficiency and speed, enhancing disclosure, separating management decision-making from business execution, and ensuring the independent authority of our Audit Committee directors. At the core of our policy on corporate governance is the goal to maximize corporate value and management transparency for our shareholders.

In addition, we have established a “Basic Policy on Systems for Ensuring Appropriateness of Operations” based on the Companies Act and the Ordinance for Enforcement of the Companies Act, and we have developed and are operating systems based on this basic policy. In order to ensure the appropriateness of the company’s overall operations, we have established our internal control system to ensure the compliance with laws and regulations for our business activities, the reliability of our financial reports, the preservation of our assets, and the improvement of the effectiveness and efficiency of our operations. In addition, we are strive to constantly implement the system appropriately. Whether or not these systems have been properly established and are well operated is confirmed and evaluated through periodic audits conducted by the Internal Control Office, which reports independently and directly to the President and CEO.

Please refer to the following for details of the approach and system based on these policies.
