Abstract

Since the 1990s, many company executives, lawyers, and scholars have been debating the issue of corporate governance in Japan.1 However, differences in opinion on the appropriate approach to corporate governance prevented them from coming to a unified conclusion. Given the lack of consensus, some companies took the initiative and started reforming their corporate governance structures voluntarily. They focused mainly on the compilation and functions of their boards of directors.
