Basic Approach to Corporate Governance

The Company recognizes responding precisely to changes in the business environment, engaging in prompt and appropriate decision-making, ensuring the transparency and soundness of management, and strengthening corporate governance as key management issues.

Corporate Governance Structure

As a company with audit and supervisory committee, we have established a compliance system and implemented other management reforms intended to enhance the fairness and transparency of management, as well as to establish an efficient management system. Similarly, we established the Audit and Supervisory Committee, a majority of whose members consist of outside directors, in an effort to strengthen the supervisory function of the Board of Directors.
