Sustainability

We have signed a loan agreement for "Positive Impact Finance" with the Bank of Yokohama, Ltd.

*"Positive Impact Finance" is financing that aims to make a positive contribution to society by comprehensively evaluating and monitoring the impact that business activities have on the environment, society, and economy.

In concluding this agreement, Hamagin Research Institute Co., Ltd. analyzed and evaluated our SDG-related initiatives to be in line with the "Principles for Positive Impact Finance" established by the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), as well as being consistent with the "Basic Principles for Impact Finance" compiled by the Positive Impact Finance Task Force established pursuant to Article 2 (4) of the Guidelines for Establishment of the High-Level Panel on ESG Finance by the Ministry of the Environment. These were also confirmed by a third-party organization, Japan Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (JCR).

In order to realize our corporate philosophy, we are working on SDGs promotion activities with the goal of our basic sustainability policy of "sustainability management that values people and the environment of the earth." We will set KPIs such as expanding sales of products that have a positive impact on society and the environment, reducing electricity consumption, recycling activities, and improving employee skills.
