How are board changes disclosed in Japan?

Japanese companies disclose board and officer changes through TDNet filings, typically after a board resolution. These filings include the effective date, the names of appointees and departing officers, and their new roles. Pulse News Wire translates all such filings.

Do Japanese companies disclose individual director compensation?

Individual director compensation disclosure is not mandatory for most Japanese companies, though it is increasingly common among Prime Market companies. When compensation details are included in TDNet filings, Pulse News Wire translates them.

Are corporate governance reports included?

Yes. When companies file updated corporate governance reports on TDNet, Pulse News Wire translates the filing. Note that full Corporate Governance Reports (CG Reports) are filed separately with JPX and may not appear on TDNet.

How quickly are governance filings translated?

Most governance filings are translated shortly after their TDNet filing time. Administrative filings (officer appointments) tend to be shorter and are among the fastest to process.
