Helping to Enrich Society
MC promotes corporate activities rooted in the principles of fairness and integrity, based on the Three Corporate Principles, which have served as MC’s core principles since its founding. We have constantly endeavored to enhance our compliance initiatives, by establishing the Corporate Standards of Conduct
as a guideline for corporate actions, developing various compliance-related internal rules and regulations, introducing a compliance officer system, expanding and upgrading risk management frameworks, and establishing appropriate internal control systems.
In order to ensure compliance, each and every employee has pledged and signed the Mitsubishi Corporation Code of Conduct, which requires employees to conduct business in compliance with laws and regulations and global standards, as well as act in a responsible manner in accordance with social norms. MC has adopted the Principles of Corporate Governance [PDF: 164KB]
