Initiative Framework

Based on our “Sustainability Management Policy,” the Group has established an “Environmental Policy” that considers the environment in our business activities, a “Human Rights Policy” that considers human rights, and a “Policy on Loans and Investments for Achieving a Sustainable Society” regarding investment and lending, which are the core of our business activities.
With the aim to practice sustainability management, we have established a Sustainability Management Council, which complements and reinforces the functions of the Board of Directors to discuss various issues that require medium- to long-term, cross-field initiatives and examine specific initiatives to resolve these issues.
Matters discussed by the Sustainability Management Council are reported to the Board of Directors on a regular basis or as needed.
