TechnoPro Group Partially Revises Corporate Governance Guidelines and Enacts Anti-Bribery Guidelines

Jul 1, 2020

At meetings held on April 28 and June 30, 2020, the TechoPro Holdings board of directors resolved to revise a portion of the TechnoPro Group Corporate Governance Guidelines and enacted the TechnoPro Group Anti-Bribery Guidelines as of July 1, 2020.

1. Partial Revision of the TechnoPro Group Corporate Governance Guidelines

Since being established, the company’s Nomination and Compensation Committee has ensured independence and objectivity through a membership consisting of a majority of independent outside directors and independent outside Audit & Supervisory Board members, and a committee chair who is also an independent outside director or independent outside Audit & Supervisory Board member. TechnoPro Holdings has recently advanced the TechnoPro Group Corporate Governance Guidelines as follows, revising the rules regarding the membership of the Nomination and Compensation Committee to consist entirely of independent outside directors and independent outside Audit & Supervisory Board members, with the objective of further reinforcing the independence and objectivity of the committee.

To date, the TechnoPro Group has engaged in the practice of compliance-driven and honest corporate behavior based on the TechnoPro Group Code of Conduct. In response to our greater globalization and stricter enforcement of laws related to bribery and fair competition around the world, we have established the TechnoPro Group Anti-Bribery Guidelines as another measure in engaging in ESG management. These guidelines are applicable to TechnoPro Holdings, as well as all of our subsidiaries in Japan and across the world.

The TechnoPro Group will continue to strive for fair relationships with society and conduct in line with social ethics by promoting an awareness and education of these guidelines for our executives and employees.
