Materiality

The Group has identified five material issues from among a large number of social issues. In identifying these issues, we selected social issues believed to be of high importance in the environment surrounding the Group, and identified material issues from two viewpoints: Solving social issues through business development leveraging our strengths, and strengthening our management foundation to support sustainable growth. We set targets for resolving material issues, and align our activities accordingly.
