Overall sustainability governance
and risk management

To increase our corporate value with respect to sustainability and to strengthen our sustainability promotion structure, in June 2023, we established a Sustainability Committee as an advisory body to the Board of Directors. The committee is chaired by the director in charge of the Administration Department and convenes the heads of major divisions. It deliberates and decides overall sustainability policies, targets and plans, and carries out studies and discussions for implementing plans. The Sustainability Committee reports the content of its discussions to the Board of Directors, which discusses and supervises policies for dealing with the Group’s sustainability risks and opportunities, implementation plans and related topics.
