Asset Management One Co., Ltd.

We are delighted to be part of the Initiative with like-minded financial institutions. In January this year, we published a corporate message as our purpose in society, “Creating a sustainable future through the power of investment”, as part of our strong commitment to integrating sustainability into our management. We believe that this is the very essence of our “impact orientation”. However, as an asset management company, it is difficult for us to take on this major challenge on our own, and it is extremely important that the entire investment chain, including asset owners and market participants, work together to develop an information disclosure platform for measuring impact. We hope that this declaration will accelerate the pace of this effort.
