The Company has established a voluntary Nomination and Compensation Committee (a majority of whose members are independent outside directors) and a Sustainability Committee to ensure sound and transparent management.
Risk Management
Based on the "Crisis Management Regulations" established in October 2001, the company has developed a risk management framework. In the event of an emergency, a "Crisis Management Committee," centered on five internal directors and the presidents of each group company, is established to respond in accordance with the "Crisis Management Response Manual." Sustainability-related risks are evaluated and discussed by the Sustainability Committee, with a framework in place to report to the Board of Directors as necessary.
