MC regards its Materiality as a guideline for the continuous creation of significant MC Shared Value, as we aim to create this value by strengthening the MC Group’s collective capabilities to address societal challenges. To effectively achieve this target, each Division and Business Group establishes “Action Plans”, which serve as mid-term plans related to the relevant material issues for each business or initiative, and tracks their progress through annual reviews. MC has thereby established a mechanism to confirm how our Materiality serves our business strategies, initiatives and organizational management that lead to the creation of MCSV.
