Fund Creation Group Co.,Ltd (3266) Stock Price

Fund Creation Group is a comprehensive asset management company that develops and operates a diverse range of investment products. The company's core service is providing end-to-end fund development and management across various asset classes, including real estate, solar power generation, securities, and vehicles. With investor needs at the foundation of its business concept, the company serves a broad customer base ranging from individual investors to institutional investors.

The company's customers primarily consist of individual investors, high-net-worth individuals, and institutional investors. Revenue is generated mainly through various fees from fund management and administration services. Key revenue sources include management fees for foreign investment trusts, acquisition and disposition fees for real estate transactions, and asset management fees, with fee rates and revenue composition varying by fund type and structure. Additionally, financial product intermediary services contribute to revenue through intermediary commissions based on transaction volume.

The business is divided into two main segments: Asset Management and Investment Banking. The Asset Management segment operates real estate funds (including the monthly distribution foreign investment trust "FC Fund-Legit Real Estate Securities Investment Trust"), securities funds (Vietnam equity funds, venture capital investment funds, etc.), solar power generation funds, vehicle funds, and other business-type funds. The Investment Banking segment engages in direct investments in real estate, solar power generation equipment, and vehicles; investments in listed and unlisted companies; and financial product intermediary services.

Fund Creation Group is pursuing a growth strategy built on two pillars: asset management operations and investment banking operations. The company prioritizes two key performance indicators: the balance of assets under management in funds and the balance of assets held in trust, including real estate. As of November 2025, assets under management in funds reached 23.3 billion yen, while assets held in trust, including real estate, reached 20.7 billion yen. Within the latter, solar power generation facilities account for 5.8 billion yen and vehicles account for 4.2 billion yen. Going forward, the company aims to further expand these balances through the development and structuring of new funds targeting diverse investment products, thereby strengthening its stable revenue base.

The company's differentiation strategy lies in commercializing new investment targets that transcend the boundaries of conventional financial products. It operates across a broad range of sectors including real estate, solar power generation facilities, vehicles, securities, and investments in listed and unlisted companies. The company leverages in-house and external expertise in finance, law, taxation, and accounting to deliver products that meet customer needs. Notably, the company focuses on the continuous development and discovery of quality projects in its solar power generation fund business and is expanding assets under management in its vehicle fund business. Through the exploration of new investment fields, the company is diversifying its revenue streams.

To strengthen its business foundation, the company is expanding its business portfolio through stable revenue generation from existing operations, combined with aggressive investment in multiple new ventures and M&A activities aimed at synergies and risk diversification. The company is also strengthening partnerships with securities firms, financial institutions, and tax accounting firm groups, working to expand sales channels and enhance sales capabilities targeting high-net-worth individuals and quality unlisted companies. The company is deepening collaboration with partners in sourcing and acquiring investment projects to pursue more effective business development.

The company currently operates with a lean team of 38 highly skilled professionals. Given that each business function requires advanced specialized knowledge and extensive experience, the company has positioned talent acquisition and development as a critical priority. The company is focusing on recruiting specialized professionals with immediately applicable expertise while also investing in developing young talent through regular new graduate hiring, thereby strengthening its organizational foundation in preparation for future business expansion. Additionally, to address increased funding needs accompanying business expansion, the company is developing a flexible funding procurement system by cultivating new banking relationships and strengthening existing ones.
