Risk Management

Basic Policy

At Alps Alpine, we view risk management as the basis for a style of management and business operation that enables sustainable business growth and enhanced corporate value over the medium to long term—in other words, a foundation for growth-oriented management. We will work to eliminate or minimize future potential risks and the damages that may be incurred due to the diversifying number of risks associated with the globalization of our business and to the increasing complexity of our supply chain.

Maintaining a Risk Map

The Company has established a management system in light of the functions and roles of departments related to risk management under our crisis management rules. As one of these measures, we visualize the risks surrounding the Company, evaluate them in terms of their likelihood of occurrence, impact on business, and implementation status of risk countermeasures, and then prepare a risk map. We then prioritize risk reduction measures and develop risk management activities based on the risk assessment results.

Crisis Management System

We are taking various measures, including developing a crisis management manual to minimize damage if something happens that could significantly impact our business operations or supply chain. To respond promptly in an emergency, we have established a system for sharing information among related departments and are preparing various manuals. Furthermore, in the event of a disaster at the headquarters, a second company-wide crisis headquarters will be established at the Sendai R&D Center (Furukawa). In addition, in the event something happens that may cause the suspension or cessation of business activities at a site or in the region where the site is located, we will promptly set up various task forces depending on the degree of impact and based on reports from relevant departments, the task forces will formulate company-wide response policies, measures, plants, etc., and establish a system to promptly report to stakeholders the status of damage and the impact on our business.
