Tokyo Small and Medium Business Investment & Consultation Co. (SBIC)

Tokyo Small and Medium Business Investment & Consultation Co. supports the capital base and sustainable development of small and medium-sized companies in Japan. Its website explains the investment-development program, through which the company can invest in businesses and serve as a long-term, stable shareholder. The site says it respects each company’s management independence and does not interfere with operations or dispatch officers. Businesses can learn about support for capital policy, ownership stability, dispersed shares, succession planning, and leadership development, and read examples from participating companies. The portal also lists successor-learning opportunities, seminars, corporate training, management articles, news, and investment results. It is a source of information about SBIC’s SME investment and business-support activities, rather than a general stock-trading service.
