Mitsubishi Estate aims to realize the enhancement of corporate value through a harmonious balance between corporate growth and the interests of its various stakeholders by following its brand slogan, “A Love for People. A Love for the City,” based on its basic mission of “contributing to society through urban development.” The Company shall position the development and promotion of its corporate governance system as one of the most important management issues in realizing this goal.
In developing and promoting our corporate governance system, to bring about greater clarity with regard to roles and the strengthening of functions in both the supervision of management and the execution of business while also fulfilling accountability to our shareholders and other stakeholders, the basic policy shall work to ensure the transparency and objectivity of management
As a “Company with Nominating Committee, etc.,” the Company has been working to bring about greater clarity of roles and a strengthening of functions in both the execution of business and the supervision of the management by having the Board of Directors not only take on the function of management supervision but also delegate decision authority on individual business execution to the Corporate Executive Officers wherever possible and promoting clarification of authorities and responsibilities concerning business execution and prompt decision-making.
In addition, three committees (the Nominating Committee, Audit Committee, and Remuneration Committee—a majority of each of whose membership are Outside Directors) nominate the candidates for Director, decide remuneration of corporate officers, and perform audits on the execution of duties of the Directors and Corporate Executive Officers, etc., and thereby promote high standards and ensure transparency of the decision-making process. Accordingly, we deem that in so doing the Company undertakes the mandate of its stakeholders, especially its shareholders, while also contributing to achieving medium- to long-term improvement in its corporate value.
The Board of Directors decides the basic policy of the Company’s management, and it also carries out supervision of the execution of duties by directors and corporate executive officers. As of June 29, 2021, the Board of Directors consists of 15 directors, of whom seven are outside directors. The role of chairman of the Board of Directors is held by the chairman of the Board, who does not concurrently serve as a Corporate Executive Officer.
To realize the Long-Term Management Plan 2030, the Company appoints candidates for Directors who possess the skills (knowledge, experiences, capabilities) needed for the Company’s Board of Directors to exercise its management oversight function and monitoring function effectively and who have the qualities and capabilities that contribute to the medium- to long-term, sustainable enhancement of corporate value. We are working to realize a system that ensures diversity in backgrounds and the appropriate balance for the entire Board of Directors.
