Basic policies

As an entity that acts as an agent handling financial institutions' important services, our company recognizes its important roles & responsibilities in ensuring the continuity of those businesses regarding motor vehicle financing and the distribution market.

Our company has used the business continuity management (BCM) process to: formulate plans based on hypothetical major disasters; conduct employee training and drills, as well as internal inspections and reviews; and implement corrective and preventive steps. By doing this, we take advance steps to guard against threats and problems, and we minimize disaster-related damage to the furthest extent possible. This is done by devising preventive measures against risks to business continuity, including: fire, accidents, earthquakes, new influenza strains, or other widespread disasters; internal or external threats from terrorism, computer viruses, and information leaks; decreases in numbers of employees due to mental health or harassment issues; and malfunctioning equipment, telecommunications, or other factors. By employing all these efforts, we are endeavoring to enable the normal provision of business services at all times.

Furthermore, we will respond promptly and appropriately as described below the moment a major disaster or threat occurs.

1. Ensuring everyone's safety

We will place the highest priority on confirming and ensuring that our employees and their family members are safe.

2. Business continuity

We will devise the systems needed for business continuity and endeavor to see that important priority business services continue.

3. Contributing to society

Working with the national and local governments, we will strive to contribute to society and local communities.

BCM efforts to date

¹Relocated our enterprise systems to the systems center

We relocated our enterprise systems to the systems center so as to avoid the risk of damage to our enterprise systems due to a disaster or other causes. Moreover, we have made preparations against network damage with multiple backup communications lines.

²Built a redundancy into our system by establishing two sites, one in the east and one in the west, for delivering documents

We devised a system under which the work of delivering important documents (primarily related to the cancellation of ownership retention) is handled by two sites, one in the east and another in the west. Under this system, we ensure the continuity of our document delivery services by concentrating services in the opposite location (switching over) if either document delivery site is damaged by an earthquake, system troubles, etc.
