Message from the President

president

Daiwa Fund Consulting Co. Ltd. started consulting for pensions in 1994 as a business of Daiwa Institute of Research Ltd. In July 2006, we spun off from Daiwa Institute of Research Ltd., expanding the scope of our research to investment trusts, providing investment advice for fund wraps, and expanding our business as a gatekeeper centered on alternatives.

We utilize the central research function to access various fund information of management companies around the world, and evaluate funds based on a unified standard through extensive and high-quality fund research. We provide one-stop solutions to client's concern about asset management, such as asset management consulting, investment advice for fund wraps (FoFs), and discretionary investment.

With "customer first" as our creed, we will strive to be a cutting-edge company with fiduciary duty.
