Establishment of Japan Industrial Solutions Fund II
Development Bank of Japan Inc. (President & CEO: Masanori Yanagi ( Hereinafterreferred to as the " DBJ", Mizuho Bank, Ltd. (President & CEO: Nobuhide Hayashi, Hereinafterreferred to as the "Mizuho", Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (President and CEO: Takeshi
Kunibe, Hereinafter referred to as the "SMBC", The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.(President& CEO: Takashi Oyamada, hereinafter referred to as the "BTMU") have announced that they havecommitted an equity investment in Japan Industrial Solutions Fund II (Herein after referred to as the"JIS2"), which is managed by an asset manager called Japan Industrial Solutions Co., Ltd.
(Hereinafter referred to as the "JIS") with the total amount of 50billion(50,000,000,000)yen.
JIS invests in large-cap Japanese firms and turn them around by enhancing their global competitivenessand corporate values in the market, by conducting proper corporate governance and providing concretebusiness solutions for the firms. By doing so, JIS intends to lead to consolidations in their particularindustry, and eventually the revitalization of Japanese economy.
JIS started Japan Industrial Solution Fund I (JIS1) with the total amount of one hundred billion(100,000,000,000) yen in November 2010 and deployed it to a total of 9 Japanese firms. It has alreadycompleted six investments as the investee companies improved their corporate values. Based upon suchsteady progresses demonstrated by JIS1, a total of 4 companies, i.e., DBJ, Mizuho, SMBC as well as
BTMU agreed to start up JIS2 recently.
Moving forward, JIS is aiming to expand JIS2 in size to a total of 200 billion (200,000,000,000) yen byinviting new investors including banks, life and non-life insurance companies, industrial companies andpension funds.
We assume that increasing number of Japanese firms will need restructuring or reconstruction of theirbusinesses, given the fact that global competition will be intensified and domestic demands will shrink mainly
due to its aging population in Japan. JIS will help such Japanese businesses meet their funding needs or capitalneeds by applying a very unique Japanese approach to them by co-working with the firms’ incumbentmanagement teams, lenders, and other stake-holders, as an investment company that has a deep understandingof the Japanese corporate culture, which JIS has gained through its management of JIS1.
DBJ, Mizuho, SMBC and BTMU will, through JIS funds, continue to contribute to the revitalization of Japan'sindustry and economy via JIS funds that sticks with its solid investment philosophy since its foundation.
