Business Details

A financial instruments intermediary that provides a business platform to IFAs (Independent Financial Advisors) who offer asset management advice to clients from an independent and neutral standpoint. The company has entered into business commission agreements with multiple securities firms, including Rakuten Securities and SBI Securities, and operates IFA offices nationwide. Its revenue structure involves paying IFAs a fixed proportion of the commissions received from securities firms. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the company withdrew from the insurance agency business conducted by a consolidated subsidiary, concentrating management resources on its core financial instruments intermediary business.

Recent Overview

Revenue rose 20.7% and the company achieved a turnaround to operating profit, while AUM expanded 23.9% year on year to ¥429,738 million.

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), supported by a favorable market environment in which the Nikkei Average rose 43.4% from the end of the prior fiscal year, the company achieved revenue of ¥4,584 million (up 20.7% year on year) and operating income of ¥110 million (versus an operating loss of ¥2 million in the prior fiscal year), marking a turnaround to profitability. Key KPIs improved across the board: AUM reached ¥429,738 million (up 23.9% from the end of the prior fiscal year), the number of affiliated IFAs rose to 214 (up 3), and the total number of accounts increased to 18,229 (up 7.0%). Meanwhile, the company decided to withdraw from the insurance agency business conducted by a consolidated subsidiary as of the end of March 2026, concentrating management resources on its core financial instruments intermediary business. It is also noted that a change in the estimate of asset retirement obligations (an increase of approximately ¥11 million) reduced operating income by approximately ¥10 million.

Key Products

service
Financial Instruments Intermediary Service

Through business commission agreements with Rakuten Securities, SBI Securities, and others, affiliated IFAs provide clients with advice on purchasing and managing financial products. The revenue structure involves paying IFAs a fixed proportion of the commissions received from securities firms. The rising proportion of stock-type commissions from investment trusts (revenue linked to trust fees) is contributing to greater revenue stability.

platform
IFA Business Platform

The company works to enhance client management tools and sales tools so that affiliated IFAs can pursue the best interests of their clients. It is actively introducing AI technology to promote efficiency in routine and administrative tasks. The company operates 19 IFA offices nationwide and is strengthening its support system for following up with IFAs.

service
Other Financial Services (Insurance Solicitation & Matching Service)

Regarding the insurance agency business conducted by the consolidated subsidiary AIP Consultants Co., Ltd., in light of the difficulty in improving profitability and the need to respond to strengthened management systems, the company terminated new insurance solicitation and withdrew from the business as of the end of March 2026. Support was provided for IFAs wishing to continue insurance solicitation to transfer to FK Co., Ltd., a comprehensive business alliance partner.

Growth Drivers

  • Expanding demand for personal asset formation driven by the government's promotion of its "Plan for Realizing a Nation Built on Asset Management"
  • Increase in stock-type commissions (revenue linked to trust fees) driven by the continued expansion of intermediated asset balances (AUM)
  • Increase in the number of affiliated IFAs and improvement in AUM per IFA (AUM per IFA of ¥2,008 million at the end of FY2026, ending March 2026)
  • Creation of synergies through the comprehensive business alliance with major insurance agency FK Co., Ltd.
  • Efficiency and productivity improvements in routine and administrative tasks through the introduction of AI technology
  • Business expansion through accelerated business alliances and M&A, and concentration on the core business following withdrawal from the insurance agency business

Risks

  • Risk of significant fluctuations in commission income due to volatility in stock and foreign exchange markets (market dependence so high that disclosing earnings forecasts is difficult)
  • Risk of revenue concentration with Rakuten Securities (a revenue structure highly dependent on a specific securities firm)
  • Risk of revenue fluctuation due to changes in the number of IFAs (IFAs are sole proprietors, and there is a risk of attrition)
  • Risk of increased costs from stricter regulation of the financial instruments intermediary business and enhancement of management systems
  • Instability in financial markets due to geopolitical risks such as Trump-era tariffs and Middle East tensions, or changes in the domestic political landscape
  • Risk of impact on profit from changes in accounting estimates, such as for asset retirement obligations
