Sustainability at ORIX and Sustainability Policy
Sustainability at ORIX
Since our founding, contributing to society by creating new value through our business activities has been fundamental to ORIX. Providing new value to society and being a company that is needed by society are what makes ORIX’s sustainable growth possible.
In addition, operating with an awareness of sustainability has become fundamental to the survival of companies amid constantly shifting economic, social and global environmental conditions. Based on this thinking, ORIX strives to accurately assess and identify the opportunities and risks arising from economic, social and environmental changes in order to work with our stakeholders and community to contribute to the economic development and sustainable growth of the larger global community, and to incorporate those opportunities and risks into our corporate management.
Sustainability Policy
In September 2019, we adopted our ORIX Corporate Sustainability Policy to clarify our intention to promote sustainability across the enterprise.
