Internal Control Measures

Board of Directors adopts resolution on the establishment of internal control system

In recent years, corporate scandals and lack of compliance have become social problems. In order to prevent these issues, companies are required to strengthen internal controls. Konica Minolta is required to establish and maintain an internal control system by Japan’s Companies Act.

Konica Minolta, Inc. reviews the company's internal control system every March, and the Board of Directors then renews its resolution on the development of the internal control system. An outline of the recent resolution and the operational status of internal control system was published in the business report for the fiscal year ended March 2024. We continue to strive to ensure the legality, rationality, and efficiency of our business activities by reviewing, as occasion demands, systems and rules of management and operation throughout the Group's business activities.

Complying with Japan's Financial Instruments and Exchange Law

Conducting an internal assessment of consolidated Group subsidiaries around the world

The Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law (JSOX) was adopted during the fiscal year ended March 2009 in order to prevent corporate accounting fraud and ensure the reliability of financial reporting.

Konica Minolta, Inc. conducts an internal assessment of 143 companies including its consolidated group subsidiaries both in and outside Japan and prepares its internal control report. The report undergoes an internal control audit by external auditors and then is submitted together with the Japanese Annual Securities Report (fiscal year ended March 31, 2024).
