The Board of Directors Secretariat distributes a questionnaire to all directors and all auditors and summarizes the questionnaire results, which are then analyzed and evaluated by the Board of Directors.
As a result of the questionnaire conducted in May 2023, it was confirmed that the status of the composition, operation, and deliberation is generally appropriate, and that the Board of Directors maintains the effectiveness of its roles and functions.
As a summary of the results, it was evaluated that some improvements were made in securing time for discussions and early distribution of materials.On the other hand, new issues were identified as issues for further improvement of effectiveness, such as the preparation of materials with enhanced content and easy-to-understand content. Therefore, we will continue to make improvements along with the issues identified at the time of the implementation last year (such as the composition of the number of directors and securing time for discussions).
In addition, we will continue to improve the questionnaire questions and methods used to evaluate the effectiveness.
