Commodity Fund business

Along with an enforcement of Commodity Fund Law of Japan in 1991, we raised the first Commodity Fund in Japan (NI partner's Fund). At the same time, investors began selecting commodity funds to diversify their investments under the extraordinary low interest rate era. Since we have raised the first Commodity Fund, our operation and assets under management have rapidly and dramatically increased due to the management skills by our internal CPO in our group, which is harmonized with excellent returns generated by our employing CTAs like Okato Investment Management Co., Ltd. For the purpose of efficient diversification, we have embarked on incessant research and intensive study for various overseas money managers, such as CTAs, Hedge funds and Investment advisors so that we can design a wide range of investment vehicles. Our fund raising and launch is non-stop to meet customers’ expectations and enquiries.
