Viewing explanations of corporate and business management information to such stakeholders as shareholders and other investors as an important corporate governance task, we strive for timely and appropriate disclosure.
For each release of quarterly financial results, we provide explanations from senior management through financial results presentations and videos on our web site. Further, senior executives visit domestic and overseas investors to explain business management information directly to them.Especially for overseas investors, in fiscal 2011, senior executives held direct dialogues with investors in major cities in Europe, the United States, and Asia. Also, for individual investors ITOCHU holds presentations in major cities in Japan. In addition, ITOCHU publishes annual reports and other reports in English and Japanese as a means of communicating ITOCHU’s policies and progress in relation to business management to shareholders and investors unable to attend presentations and a range of other stakeholders. Furthermore, from the standpoint of fairness, ITOCHU’s web site provides disclosure documents in both English and Japanese.
In order to facilitate appropriate and highly transparent disclosure, senior executives receive any feedback from shareholders and investors attending presentations.
