ESG Policy and Structure

Sustainability Basic Policy and Promotion Structure were established as a guideline and serve as the foundation for sustainable growth by earning the trust and support of all our stakeholders, including customers, shareholders, employees, and business partners. In compliance with this basic policy, we aim to solve social issues in order to enhance corporate value and realize a sustainable society.

Sustainability basic policy

At SoftBank, we will work to resolve various social issues through our corporate and business activities to realize a sustainable society in which all things, information and minds are connected.

  • We will provide wonder, peace of mind, and delight through customer-oriented business approach.
  • To meet stakeholder expectations, we will continue to challenge ourselves to achieve corporate growth and clearly disclose information.
  • Employee satisfaction, pride, uniqueness and diversity will be encouraged and valued.
  • Mutual trust and fair trade with our suppliers will be a priority (to prevent corruption and degeneracy, etc.).
  • To create a better future for everyone, we will continue to drive an information-based society, support education for the next generation, increase communication for our diverse society, protect the environment and manage resources in a sustainable manner, conserve biodiversity, and provide disaster response and relief.

Oversight structure

The Board of Directors deliberates and resolves on key sustainability matters and oversees the progress of initiatives to further advance sustainability-driven management.
To reinforce governance oversight in the sustainability area, the Company has established the ESG Promotion Committee as an advisory body to the Board. Chaired by Junichi Miyagawa, President & CEO, the Committee convenes quarterly (with additional meetings as needed) to monitor the Group's sustainability activities—such as progress against Material Issues KPIs—and submit recommendations to the Board. In its decision-making, the Board gives full consideration to the Committee's position and recommendations, ensuring that sustainability perspectives are properly integrated into the Company's management.
Through the combined oversight functions of the Board of Directors and the ESG Promotion Committee, the Company continues to supervise business execution and drive the integration of its growth strategy with sustainability.
