The event will support disaster-relief efforts for the victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake in March of this year.
Tadashi Ezaki, President and CEO of TOCOM comments: “This event will offer Japanese retail investors with an excellent opportunity to obtain broad-based knowledge and information covering multiple asset classes. For us, as a commodity exchange, we expect this be a good stage to promote commodity futures among the broader investment community and build closer communications between market players and investors."
