Securities companies move to strengthen support for startup companies. Among these, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities allows startups that are in the early stages of founding or have inexperienced managers to raise capital.
Nomura Holdings has established a fund to invest in unlisted companies and is planning to list it on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in order to widely collect funds. Mizuho Securities is also looking to collaborate with venture capital companies that invest in startups. In addition, the government has set a goal of increasing investment in startups by more than 10 times the current amount.
