Corporate Governance

We believe that enhancing corporate governance is one of the most important management issues in order to fulfill our corporate social responsibilities.In line with this policy, we introduced an executive officer system in January 2002, further condensing and enhancing the original function of the Board of Directors, clarifying management responsibilities and accelerating business execution.

The highest decision-making body in our business is the General Meeting of Shareholders, which serves as the supreme body, and the Board of Directors, which is appointed by the Board of Directors, as composition body.In addition, inspection & Supervisory Board Members elected at the General Meeting of Shareholders will inspection the execution of duties by Directors. Furthermore, the Board of Executive Officers has been established as a subordinate body of the Board of Directors. This is aimed at separating decision-making from business execution, with purpose of achieving and enhancing operations, and more closely aligning operations with the actual conditions of on-site operations.

Outline, overview, concept of our corporate governance system are as follows.
