Pursuing New Growth |
(Presentation at Results Meeting for First Half of the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2009, as presented Nov 7, 2008) |
Next I would like to explain our securities-related business initiatives.
Japanese individuals are said to hold approximately ¥1,500 trillion in personal financial assets, although admittedly this figure may have changed somewhat given the recent fall in global equity prices. By effectively utilizing and managing these assets, Japan could do much to resolve a number of the demographic issues it faces, including the declining birthrate and aging of the population. We believe that the medium-term trend of a shift from "savings to investment," despite being temporarily on hold due to the current market turmoil, remains in effect. To put this ¥1,500 trillion in personal financial assets to work—to promote the prosperity, security and well-being of the people—we at CSK Group seek to provide a comprehensive securities platform that combines the expertise and resources of our securities-related businesses with those of our IT service businesses.
