Corporate Governance Structure

The JVCKENWOOD Group believes that one of its most important management issues is to increase the transparency and efficiency of its management decision-making process and improve corporate value by strengthening corporate governance. To this end, we make it a basic policy to enhance our corporate governance through the establishment of a structure that calls for “the separation of management from the execution of businesses”, “the appointment of Independent External Directors”, and “the improvement of check functions by establishing an Internal Audit Division”, thereby strengthening the Company’s internal control system on a Group-wide basis.
