In order to keep guard against the
potential for stagnation in the Board of
Directors system, HOYA has gradually
reduced the number of directors, and in
1995 began appointing outside directors.
The current Board of Directors comprises
five outside directors and three internal
directors, for a total of eight. With more
than half of the Board coming from
outside the Company, management
supervision is enhanced and
transparency is ensured. HOYA is
governed under the “company with
committees” system as defined by the
Companies Act of Japan. All members of
the Nomination Committee,
Compensation Committee and Audit
Committee are outside directors, helping
to enhance the soundness of HOYA's
management.
