Our strength stems from extensive experience in corporate research and valuation across diverse investment entities, each with unique investment philosophies.
Our chief analyst has more than 25 years of expertise in corporate analysis, valuation, and asset management as a research analyst and fund manager for life insurance companies, asset management companies, hedge funds, and shareholder engagement funds. He is a specialist in identifying value by analyzing companies from different perspectives.
In the area of shareholder engagement in Japan, he holds significant proficiency in shareholder proposals, proxy solicitation, exercise of shareholders’ legal rights, appraisal rights and related litigation, and judicial disputes regarding corporate valuation, both on the shareholder side and the corporate side.
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of institutional investors who attempt shareholder engage, as what they call “constructive dialogue,” or who exert strong pressure through the exercise of shareholders’ legal rights. Listed company management faces the challenge of balancing mid-to-long-term corporate value enhancement against shareholders’ high-return expectations, often resulting in prioritizing short-term outcomes.
Leveraging our impartial experience, we offer diverse support services, striking a balance between enhancing long-term corporate value and esponding to shareholder engagement.
