Corporate Governance Overview

As a Company with Committees, Sompo Holdings has established a governance structure where the Board of Directors composed mainly of outside directors, provides oversight of management. The Board of Directors and three statutory committees, namely the Nomination Committee, Compensation Committee, and Audit Committee, are all chaired by outside directors. These committees engage in fair and active discussions aimed at strengthening Group governance, and the Board of Directors actively and proactively share the status of business execution to enhance the soundness and transparency of governance.
