Official Statement From Gilles Rollet On FMT Hearings In Dubai

Date 28/01/2022

Any company in the financial services sector has to balance the demands of their clients who seek flexibility and income generation with the governance requirements of the respective regulator. By operating within compliance boundaries, while also creating facilities that meet the client’s needs, new product or service offerings can operate safely. This is a position that we felt we had reached at La Tresorerie with our procedures. No objections were raised to what we perceived as clearly documented procedures by any of our consultants or the regulators. We are certainly disappointed by the decision of the DFSA.

Press Conference By SUZUKI Shunichi, Japan Minister Of Finance And Minister Of State For Financial Services: Reorganization Of Tokyo Stock Exchange

Date 28/01/2022

[Questions and answers:]

Q.

My question is about the reorganization of the Tokyo Stock Exchange that was announced recently. The Financial System Council Capital Market Working Group published a report in December 2019 and states that the purposes of this reform are mainly sustainable growth and corporate value creation of listed companies and start-ups, thereby creating a market that is attractive to both domestic and foreign investors. However, at present, out of approximately 2,100 companies listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, 1,841 companies, or nearly 80%, wish to be listed on the Prime Market, the new top section. Of those 1,841 companies, 296 do not satisfy the listing criteria for the Prime Market at present but wish to be listed there by the transitional measures. This invited the criticism that the intended purpose of the reform, as pointed out by the report, has already been undermined and that the reform may actually adversely lead to the overall deterioration of the Japanese market rather than make it more attractive. Could you explain your opinion as the minister in charge of financial sector with regard to the reform and the future direction of the FSA's initiatives for making the Japanese market more attractive in competition with foreign exchanges and improving the convenience of listed companies?
