Corporate Governance System

The Board of Directors consists of a majority of outside directors (4 out of 7), enhancing the transparency and objectivity of management.
Inside directors, familiar with business operations and circumstances within the company, and outside directors, who have extensive experience, knowledge, abilities, and insights, discuss issues from various perspectives, so that decisions can be appropriately made and monitored regarding strategies and policies for increasing medium- and long-term corporate value. A more diverse group of outside directors is appointed mainly from candidates with extensive corporate management experience in a wide range of industries and with a diversity of work histories.
A system of corporate auditors is used to audit the legality and appropriateness of management operations, with two internal and two outside Audit & Supervisory Board members. The Audit & Supervisory Board and its members attend Board of Directors meetings, where they proactively execute auditing functions, such as by expressing their opinions or exchanging views with directors or administrative corporate executive officers.
The President, administrative corporate executive officers, and the Executive Committee are designated as the institutions for appropriately and quickly executing administrative processes based on decisions made by the Board of Directors.
