Governance
Company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee. The Board of Directors consists of 8 members: 5 internal directors and 3 outside directors (all of whom are independent officers and members of the Audit and Supervisory Committee). A Nomination Committee and a Compensation Committee have been voluntarily established, each composed of the 3 outside directors and the Representative Director and President (4 members each). An executive officer system has been introduced to separate business execution from the oversight function.
Risk Management
The Internal Audit Office oversees risk management, with audit results regularly reported to the Board of Directors via the Representative Director and President. Legal and compliance matters are referred to attorneys as needed, while tax and labor matters are referred to tax accountant corporations and labor and social security attorneys. Regarding sustainability-related risks, each responsible department identifies and evaluates such risks, with the Board of Directors providing oversight and instructions.
