To that end, we believe that corporate governance is not only thorough compliance as a company, but also flexible and appropriate response to changing economic environments through appropriate risk management. Based on this basic idea, we position the enhancement of corporate governance as a management priority and will promote the strengthening of group management. Corporate governance system (1) Basic explanation of company organization The Company has adopted a corporate auditor system and established a general meeting of shareholders, a board of directors, a board of corporate auditors, and an accounting auditor as the organization of the company. As of June 23, 2017, there are 6 directors (2 of whom are outside directors) and 4 corporate auditors (2 of whom are outside corporate auditors). In addition, in order to embody "a system for ensuring compliance with laws and regulations and the Articles of Incorporation regarding the execution of duties by directors, and other systems for ensuring the appropriateness of company operations," the "Risk Management Committee" under the Board of Directors We have established each committee, "Meeting", "Compliance Committee", and "Information Security Committee". The Company has adopted an executive officer system to ensure the swift and smooth execution of operations, and internal directors also serve as executive officers. Therefore, the Board of Directors not only supervises the business execution of directors who also serve as representative directors and executive officers, but also supervises the business execution of executive officers. The functions of the "Board of Directors," "Board of Auditors," and "Accounting Auditor" are explained below. ① Board of directors As a general rule, the Board of Directors meets once a month or extraordinarily as necessary to make decisions about the Company and formulate management strategies for subsidiaries. We strive to improve and grow the performance of the entire group and strengthen corporate governance. On the other hand, matters that are not agenda items of the Board of Directors and are of relatively high importance are basically deliberated and reported at the management meeting held every week. ② Board of Corporate Auditors The Board of Corporate Auditors formulates and implements audit policies and plans based on the Auditing Standards of Corporate Auditors. In addition, we recheck the priority audit items every year in response to changes in the business environment. ③ Accounting auditor Regarding the accounting auditor, the Company has entered into an audit contract with KPMG Azsa Audit Corporation and undergoes accounting audits from a fair standpoint.

In international business activities, we will not only comply with international rules and local laws, but also respect local culture and customs and carry out management that contributes to its development. 9. Top management recognizes that the realization of the spirit of this Charter is their role, and takes the initiative in setting it up within the company and disseminating it to group companies and business partners. In addition, we will constantly grasp the voices inside and outside the company, establish an effective internal system, and thoroughly implement corporate ethics. Ten. When a situation that violates this Charter occurs, the top management will clarify the stance of solving the problem both inside and outside the company, investigate the cause, and prevent recurrence. In addition, we will promptly and accurately disclose information to society and carry out accountability, clarify authority and responsibility, and take strict punishment including ourselves. (3) Reasons for selecting the current corporate governance system At our company, two outside directors who have insights into finance, finance, foreign exchange, international affairs, etc. supervise management policies and business execution from an independent and fair standpoint at the board of directors, and have expertise in accounting, finance, laws and regulations, etc.・ Two outside corporate auditors with experience and two internal corporate auditors who are familiar with internal circumstances conduct audits in close cooperation with accounting auditors and members of the Audit Department. We believe that such supervision and auditing will ensure the appropriateness of our business, and we have selected the current system. that's all Contact Us CSR Environmental Initiatives / Environmental Report Corporate governance About usNifco productsInvestor informationCSREmployment informationContact Us Nifcogroup Enterprise Simmons Life-changing bedmattress Before usingAbout personal information protectionsite map Copyright © Nifco Inc, All rights reserved.
