Group CEO Message

In fiscal year 2025, JPX Group has started its Medium-Term Management Plan 2027.

JPX Group's overall mission is to contribute to the realization of an affluent society by promoting sustainable development of the market. To continue fulfilling this mission, JPX Group set out its long-term vision for 2030, which is to "contribute to sustainable societal and economic development by evolving into a global, comprehensive finance and information platform which provides solutions for a wide range of societal issues, centered on the ability to raise and circulate capital."

Under the Medium-Term Management Plan 2024 started in FY2022 for achieving this long-term vision, progress has been made in improving the attractiveness of the Japanese stock market, as well as expanding the product lineup for interest rates and energy-related products and expanding business areas, including through M&As in conjunction with the establishment of JPXI. The government has also advanced its initiatives to build Japan into a leading asset management center. Interest in Japan's capital markets has never been higher.

The newly formulated Medium-Term Management Plan 2027 is the second stage in achieving the long-term vision. Maintaining the previous slogan, “Exchange & beyond,” it embodies our determination to strengthen the traditional function of the exchange and ensure stable market operations, while venturing into new fields.

In addition to providing strong support for the "virtuous cycle of growth and distribution" that began to be achieved through initiatives such as the new NISA scheme that was launched at the beginning of 2024, JPX Group aims to increase the value it provides to society by adequately providing internationalized and diversified market functions in an era of drastic change, and by actively utilizing rapidly evolving digital technologies. JPX Group will strictly maintain its customer-oriented, “market-in” approach based around societal issues and user needs, thereby developing the foundations it has built in the first stage and enabling the creation of better markets and better services from a stakeholder perspective.

Stable management and sustainable development of our markets are feats that cannot be achieved without the understanding and cooperation of our stakeholders such as investors, listed companies, securities companies, and financial institutions. We hope to enjoy your continued support.
