MITSUBISHI MOTORS CORPORATION Annual Report 2007
36
Structure of the Report
The report contains an accounting of the events that
led up to the formation of the Business Ethics
Committee during the unprecedented management
crisis faced by MMC in 2004, conditions at the time
of formation of the committee, and the Company’s
activities to restore trust so far. The committee pro-
vides their current evaluation of these activities and
makes 13 policy recommendations based on their
evaluation (shown in table to the right). The com-
mittee did this to further support the revitalization
drive in its role as an external advisor to MMC. In
the final chapter, the committee reiterates the points
it wishes to emphasize based on the impressions of
committee members garnered from their committee
activities up to now.
Evaluation of Company in Report
The report generally gives high marks to MMC activi-
ties in this regard. For example, looking back on mea-
sures that MMC has taken so far, the report concludes
that earnest and steady progress has been made in
activities to restore trust in the company, based on
the unwavering stance of top executives, concluding
that the initial stage has been accomplished.
