Based on the policy of the asset manager, we define compliance not only as its with laws and regulations, but also as voluntary efforts to meet broader social expectations behind laws and regulations, and intends to conduct sound management based on sincere and fair corporate activities and self-discipline.
For more information on compliance, please visit the asset manager’s "Governance" page.

The asset manager has implemented a management system as described below to ensure that conflicts of interest do not arise from the management of assets at JMF and IIF and the discretionary investment and investment advisory business such as private real estate fund management.

Separation of asset management divisions and support structure

We have established the Metropolitan Division and the Industrial Division as divisions that are engaged in asset management of JMF and IIF, respectively, and the Private Solutions Division as the division that is engaged in supervising businesses, including the discretionary investment and the investment advisory business for private real estate funds or similar, thereby clarifying asset management responsibilities.

Securing of independence in investment decision-making

Decisions made on asset management of each investment corporation are examined solely from the perspective of whether or not such decisions are appropriate as decisions made by the Metropolitan Division, the Industrial Division, or the Private Solutions Division, without taking into consideration the situation of other investment corporations.

Rules on preferential investigation rights pertaining to investment information

With regard to information on sales of real estate obtained by the Company, we have established rules concerning determinations as to which division, the Metropolitan Division, the Industrial Division, or the Private Solutions Division, should conduct investigations in preference to the other divisions

To preempt violence from antisocial forces, clarify how we will respond as an organization and ensure that we will never have any relations or dealings with antisocial forces and use them, we also provide the “Basic Rules around How to Deal with Antisocial Forces” which stipulates that we will take a resolute attitude as an organization to antisocial forces, including coordinating with external specialized institutions, as our basic principle. Each division of the Asset Manager is expected to confirm in advance that counterparts to transactions, etc. are not considered as antisocial forces, to report any questionable acts or behaviors when they are expected directly or indirectly to the head of the Compliance Office and the President, and review social risks thoroughly to make a decision of whether the transaction can go ahead or not, in accordance with the Basic Rules as per their respective operations manuals for each division that are provided separately.

In line with the asset manager’s mission to "always create new values, for people, the community and the world," we established one of our core values as "we act proactively and professionally and adhere to the highest standards of compliance and discipline". Recognizing that we have a social responsibility to prevent corruption and bribery, we have established the "Anti-Corruption and Bribery Prevention Policy" to prohibit corruption and bribery.
