The slide for which the award was granted is a page showing the transition of ITOCHU becoming the top Sogo shosha in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 (in terms of consolidated net income), as a result of the expansion of non-resource profit. It was one of the materials that ITOCHU had produced for briefings for individual investors. The material received a high rating for its strong message, although it had been pointed out during the examination process that improvements should be made regarding the use of colors.
