Financial Business in Japan
Business Overview
Accelerating Growth with New Business Additions
In the Financial Business in Japan segment, Nihon Hosho engages in credit guarantee and receivables collection services, while Partir Servicer handles receivables collection operations.
Until now, these two core businesses have supported stable growth.
However, since the end of March 2022, securities and credit card businesses have been newly added to the business portfolio.
Business Strategies
Pursuing Synergies within the Group
In the credit guarantee business, we have established partnerships with more than 10 financial institutions and companies.
We provide guarantees for a wide range of loan products, including rental housing loans, reverse mortgages designed to address the needs of a rapidly aging society, and real estate secured loans for corporate clients as part of comprehensive financial solutions.
In addition, we also provide guarantees for loans utilizing crowdfunding platforms.
In the servicing business, we will continue to benefit from the growth of the expanding retail credit market as a specialized servicer focusing on the collection of non-performing retail receivables.
In addition, H.S. Securities (now J TRUST GLOBAL SECURITIES) was added to the group at the end of March 2022.The company is a securities firm that handles a wide range of domestic and international stocks, bonds, and investment trusts, and also has an investment banking division. In addition, the company is registered as one of the lead managing securities firms officially recognized by the Tokyo Stock Exchange, and also holds a J-Adviser qualification for the Tokyo Pro Market, allowing it to offer a wide range of services. Leveraging these functions and strengths, we aim to pursue synergies with the group’s guarantee business in collaboration with regional financial institutions as well as overseas financial business. In addition, Nexus Card, which operates the credit card business, handles installment payments through partnerships with companies such as Men's Clear, the leading company in the male body hair removal industry, as well as beauty salons, gyms, golf lessons, and clinics. By providing guarantees for these installment payments, Nihon Hosho supports the increase of Nexus Card’s installment receivables, which in turn contributes to the growth of Nihon Hosho’s guarantee balance.
In addition, MIRAI engages in installment sales mediation services for aesthetic salons and medical institutions.

Financial Business in South Korea
Business Overview
Strengthening profitability by returning to a two-savings-bank structure.
South Korea
In South Korea, since April 2022, we have returned to a two-savings-bank structure, consisting of JT Chinae Savings Bank, which specializes in personal loans, and JT Savings Bank, which specializes in loans for small and medium-sized enterprises. In addition, TA Asset Management engages in the purchase and collection of non-performing loans, and has established a structure that enables stable profit generation regardless of economic conditions.
Business Strategy
"From Growth in Quantity to Growth in Quality"
We aim for moderate growth, shifting from “growth in quantity” to “growth in quality,” and seek to maintain a certain level of assets with a well-balanced risk-return profile.
We expect to generate stable interest income through savings bank operations and receivables collection activities.

Financial Business in Southeast Asia
Business Overview
Following Indonesia, Cambodia is also expanding into new business areas.
Our group entered the financial business in Indonesia in 2014. Currently, J Trust Bank Indonesia engages in commercial banking operations, while J Trust Investments Indonesia and PT Turnaround Asset Indonesia are engaged in receivables collection operations. In addition, since 2019, we have acquired the ANZ Group’s ownership stake in a Cambodian bank that was jointly funded by the Oceania-based ANZ Group and Cambodia’s local conglomerate, the Royal Group. As a result, Cambodia has been added as a new business area within our Southeast Asia operations.
Business Strategy
Aiming to expand profits in the Indonesian financial business and enhance profitability in Cambodia.
In the Financial Business in Southeast Asia, we have dispatched members who successfully restructured failed savings banks in South Korea into stable profit-generating institutions, to Indonesia, in an effort to expand profits in our Indonesian financial business. At J Trust Bank Indonesia, measures to shift deposits from large, high-interest deposits to smaller, low-interest deposits have been successful, resulting in deposit interest rates remaining at historically low levels. In addition, under the new management structure established in January 2020, the NPL ratio for newly accumulated loan balances has remained low and stable, leading to an operating profit turnaround in the fiscal year ended December 2022. Furthermore, in Indonesia, the debt purchase market remains underdeveloped, and demand for such transactions is expected to increase going forward. In Cambodia, we plan to leverage the bank’s financial soundness to strengthen the customer base and expand our market share.

About J Trust
Founded in Japan in 1977, J Trust has expanded its financial business beyond Japan to South Korea, Indonesia, and Cambodia, offering a wide range of financial services globally.
By bringing the expertise we cultivated in Japan—such as credit screening, debt recovery, and marketing—into the South Korean market, we successfully built a business foundation that continuously generates profit.
Furthermore, in Indonesia, we have applied our successful experience in turning around financial institutions in South Korea to the revitalization of a commercial bank, while also expanding our loan servicing business.
In 2019, we acquired the ANZ Group's stake in ANZ Royal Bank, a joint venture between ANZ and the local Royal Group in Cambodia, thereby adding Cambodia to our group’s business footprint.
