Focus on Small- and Medium-Sized Growth Companies Ichiyoshi Securities specializes in research on small- and medium-sized growth companies. In addition to helping investors discover potential investments in an area typically overlooked due to lack of analyst coverage, this approach nurtures strong relationships with emerging companies that will lead Japan’s future growth. Diversifying Customers’ Investment Opportunities through Investment Trusts Ichiyoshi Securities emphasizes to customers the importance of asset allocation by investing in funds that offer attractive returns. We are one of the most active Japanese securities firms in accumulating customer assets through investment trusts. One such product is “Global Sovereign Open”, which invests in sovereign bonds of OECD countries. These bonds, which typically offer higher yields and ratings than domestic bonds, help customers diversify their portfolios globally.
