Principal Risks and Countermeasures

The group identifies risks that might impact its business activities and conducts annual group-wide risks assessments.Based on the assessment results, we then select risks that are important to us as a group. The results of the risk assessments and the list of material risks are reported by the head office Risk Management Department to the Risk Management Committee for resolution. The Committee places the risks in order of priority and monitors them.

These risks are classified into strategic risks and operational risks. Strategic risks are broadly scrutinized from a medium- to long-term perspective in terms of management policy, business strategy, and Impact Strategy, as well as from the perspective of our stakeholders. In the case of operational risks, risk owners are responsible for promoting measures to respond to these risks. The group strives to enhance the transparency of its risk management by disclosing information on material risks and countermeasures.

The possibility of occurrence and the degree of impact are residual; after taking into account the countermeasures.

Risks that could have a significant impact on the business in the long-term future (three to five years or later) are identified as emerging risks and countermeasures are being promoted.
