Basic Policy on Constructive Dialogue with Shareholders and Other Stakeholders
We have adopted a basic policy on constructive dialogue with shareholders and other stakeholders and published it on our website. Company officers and employees attend meetings with shareholders and other stakeholders, and managing directors coordinate such meetings. Various factors are considered in relation to requests for meetings with directors, including the proposed subject matter of the meeting and the affiliations of the person seeking the meeting. In addition to fair, timely, and accurate disclosure about our business management and financial situation to shareholders and other investors in Japan and overseas, we help them gain a better understanding of our viewpoint and approach by actively distributing information about the market environment and our unique strengths.
