Toward the creation of corporate value | ||
Nowadays we hear various arguments with regard to the poor capital efficiency and profitability of Japanese corporations as well as the sustainable growth of corporate value. In the past, too, the problem area in the Japanese corporate governance system had been pointed out by overseas institutional investors. Since last year, approaches are rapidly implemented for the reformation of corporate governance of Japanese companies, increasing corporate profitability, and facilitating sustainable growth of corporate value, such as Tokyo Stock Exchange’s introduction of the JPX Nikkei Index 400 that focuses on capital efficiency, establishment of the Japanese version of Stewardship code, proclamation of the revised company law, project (Ito Report) on the improvement of corporate profitability and competitiveness by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and revision of the standard for exercising voting rights by ISS, and drafting of the corporate governance code, etc. Restructuring of management models that can respond to such needs is urgent issue for Japanese corporations. While recognizing such circumstances, the Japan Association for Chief Financial Officers will strive to contribute to the development of Japanese corporations and Japan’s economy, by proactively facilitating exchanges with related overseas institutions and organizations, promoting a wide range of surveys and researches on the suitable nature of corporate management, and fostering business people with advanced knowledge, skills, and sense of ethics. |
