Message from Outside Directors
Azbil Corporation transitioned to a company with a three-committee board structure in June 2022. We strive to improve the transparency and soundness of management through the Board of Directors, of which the majority are outside directors, and the Nomination, Audit, and Remuneration Committees, each of which is chaired by an outside director.
Outside Directors' Roundtable (azbil report 2025)
It has been three years since the company transitioned to a company with a three-committee board structure in 2022. This year, we have continued initiatives to strengthen our governance system, including appointing an outside director as Chairperson of the Board and revising our remuneration system. We interviewed four outside directors—the Chairperson of the Board and the Chairpersons of each committee—about past initiatives and future developments.
