Important matters concerning company operations are reviewed and discussed at the management conference and determined by the Board of Directors. Corporate auditors are responsible for auditing and supervising the execution of management by the Board of Directors and directors.

Through these internal audits, the effectiveness of internal control is evaluated and reported to management.
Regarding the matters to be approved, we have introduced an electronic approval system to clarify decision-making and approving authority, thereby creating a system to prevent illegal acts, fraud, mistakes, and errors.
