Anti-Corruption
The “Anti-Corruption Compliance Rules” has been established to thoroughly ensure anti-corruption (prohibition of granting benefits to public officers, etc.) of employees. Sellers are requested to complete a survey form with the same intent upon property acquisition.
Governance Risk Assessment
At TAA, the critical internal review is performed at least once a year. The Risk & Compliance Office and the ESG Secretariat conduct a governance risk assessment and report to the Board. The risk countermeasures for that year are determined based on the risk assessment.
Compliance and Corporate Philosophy Survey
Every year employees of TAA take the compliance and corporate philosophy survey conducted by the Tosei Group to ensure that the corporate philosophy is shared.
Separation of Compliance Function and Internal Audit Function
TAA has separated the Risk & Compliance Office and the Internal Audit Office. They have appropriate staff to ensure the internal audit function's complete independence, which is indispensable for thorough governance.
Prevention of Conflicts of Interest
TAA has established related-party transaction rules concerning transactions with parties having a particular interest with TAA and appropriately prevents conflicts of interest for the proper execution of its asset management business.
Establishment of Whistle-Blowing System
The Tosei Group has established a whistle-blowing system, and TAA’s Risk & Compliance Office informs employees of the system at the orientation upon joining the company. In addition to internal contact points, there is also an external contact point at the engaged advisor.
