The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The changes take into account significant fluctuations in economic conditions, the increased responsibilities of the directors concerned resulting from changes in the operating environment, and changes to the method of paying directors’ bonuses. They are also intended to strengthen incentives to improve performance and contribute to further improvement in performance. The compensation committee is intended to strengthen the fairness, transparency and objectivity of the compensation decision-making process and enhance the corporate governance framework.
