Risk Management

Approach to Risk management

The Group enacted Risk Management Regulations for the purpose of contributing to the stable corporate growth of the TAMRON Group through risk management that implements measures for preventing or systematically mitigating risks over the short, medium, and long terms, and established a Risk Management Committee that makes decisions and deliberates on basic matters and policies regarding the promotion of risk management. We have established the Risk Management Review Committee as a body subordinate to the Risk Management Committee. Its roles are to identify risks within the Group and to study preventive or mitigation measures to address these risks that may have a major impact on the Group or cause it to incur significant damage. Through these activities, we understand the changes in the external environment and the status of response measures within the Group to review these measures and improve their effectiveness.

Approach to Risk management

In 2023, we identified 67 risks, including nine key risks. We determined four key matters to be addressed which are specified below. For each key matter, a leader was appointed to carry out response measures to address the risks in collaboration with related organizations. The Risk Management Committee reviews the state of the progress of these measures in the two meetings it holds each year so that measures are corrected and modified as needed.

Key matters to be addressed

  • Risks in China
  • Response to human rights issues
  • Replacement of core systems with DX-ready systems
  • BCP enhancements

*Key matters to be addressed… Matters that need to be address by the whole company (e.g. through cross-departmental actions and support for resources) in view of their increasing impact or likelihood, the progress of response actions and other factors
