Directors' Skills Matrix

Toward the realization of the “SOMPO’s Purpose,” the Company aims to “increase resilience” and implement “strategies to connect with customers and deliver connected services” to fulfill customer needs beyond insurance and deliver value to society.
This will help us achieve capital efficiency comparable with global peers and double digit level EPS (Earnings Per Share) growth.
In order to achieve these, the Board of Directors is composed mainly of outside directors, with the aim of making objective judgments on management issues and other matters from diverse and independent perspectives, by appointing directors in consideration of diversity, including gender and internationality.
