Group Structure | Domestic Retail

Domestic Retail offers investment consulting services that meet the diverse needs of our customers by leveraging our superior consulting expertise and broad lineup of financial products. We want to open up the world of investing for our customers by building closer relationships with a wider range of investors. By extension, we aim to expand the investing community in Japan and, in turn, contribute to economic growth.

Outline

Domestic Retail offers investment consulting services mainly to individual investors through an integrated network, call centers, and web-based services.

The essence of our investment consulting is to provide the best products and services to each customer based on individual investment goals, risk tolerance, life stage, and other parameters. We provide such services through discussions with customers, mainly at our branch offices, to support their long-term asset-building goals. These face-to-face services are backed up by call center operations and web-based services, which allow customers convenient access to the information they need at any time.

These services provide a diverse range of information on financial products and access to transaction services such as placing orders for trades, together with account-related services, including retrieving data on asset balances and other information.

We are also working to deliver investment products to an even broader range of customers through our partner financial institutions, which act as intermediaries for our products and services.

In addition to our high-level consulting capabilities, we offer a wide range of financial products, including equities, bonds, investment trusts, and insurance annuities. As customers demand increasingly diverse products, ranging from principal-guaranteed investments to high-yield investments, we have responded with a broader lineup of products and services that goes beyond the traditional framework of the securities business to include deposits and other bank agency services, real estate intermediary services, and inheritance-related trust services.
