Corporate Governance

The KOBELCO Group recognizes that corporate value includes not only business results and technological capabilities but also the stance on social responsibility to all stakeholders, such as shareholders and investors, customers, business partners, employees and community members. We believe that working earnestly to improve all of these factors leads to the enhancement of corporate value.

Therefore, corporate governance is not merely a form of the organization, but it is a framework for realizing all the efforts the Group is undertaking. In the development of the framework, the Group places importance on the following: establishing a system that contributes to improving corporate value through appropriate risk-taking, collaborating with stakeholders, promoting appropriate dialogue with investors in the capital market, ensuring the rights of and fairness for shareholders, and ensuring transparency.

Based on this belief, the Group aims to enhance corporate value over the medium to long term by promoting sustainability management with the Group Corporate Philosophy positioned as the foundation of all business activities
