In recent years, risks surrounding companies have increased and diversified in line with changes in the business environment. We see these changes and risks as opportunities, and seek to contribute to society by creating new solutions that take advantage of our strengths. In addition, we consider it important to recognize the various risks that may arise from our business activities, establish countermeasures, and minimize losses in the event that they materialize, in order to ensure stable business continuity. For this reason, we have established the Risk Management Committee as our top tier risk management body, and are working to further enhance management activities through the centralized management of risks.

The Chief Executive Officer and Representative Director serves as the Chairperson of the Risk Management Committee, and members consist of all executive officers. The Risk Management Committee assesses the scope and validity of risks and improvement measures reported by each meeting body, excluding the Board of Directors and the Management Committee, and provides guidance and supervision as necessary. The management of risks is regularly reported to the Board of Directors and the Audit & Supervisory Board.
The Risk Management Committee works closely with the Sustainability Committee, sharing information to identify, assess and respond to risks.
