Introduction to the Funds Membership Program

Funds, a company that offers a fixed-interest investment management service, has recently announced the introduction of its unique membership stage program, the Funds Membership Program. This initiative aims to provide special investment opportunities and perks based on clients' continuous usage of the service.

Background of the Membership Program

Since its inception in January 2019, Funds has been well-received by over 140,000 registered users, allowing individuals to invest from just one yen in public companies indirectly. Maintaining a solid record of zero delays in distribution and principal loss, Funds has successfully helped many clients grow their assets as of November 2025. The demand from clients for increased investment opportunities and reward systems led to the decision to establish the Funds Membership Program.

Objectives of the New Program

The Funds Membership Program is designed to elevate clients' investment management to the next level. By diversifying product offerings and enhancing perks, the program aims to robustly support ongoing asset formation for clients. Beginning October 2024, new options will be provided under the program—high-return professional funds that allow for greater risk relative to the standard fund options.

Structure of the Membership Program

The Funds Membership Program categorizes members into four different stages based on their transaction history:
1. Standard
2. Gold
3. Platinum
4. Black

Benefits of Membership

Members at different stages can enjoy tailored perks including:

• - Exclusive investment opportunities in professional funds.
• - Special campaigns and offers.
• - Invitations to financial seminars.

Members can track their current stage and the investment balance required to move up through their My Page. A client's investment balance will reflect in their stage upon investment execution. If an investment balance decreases due to equity redemption, the stage may drop after a certain period.

For further details on each stage, please visit our official page of the Funds Membership Program.

Highlights of Professional Funds

For Gold-level members and above, investment opportunities in professional funds—designed to achieve relatively high returns with increased risk—will be available. Funds that fall under this category include:

• - Overseas Corporate Loan Funds
• - Funds Within Mezzanine Loans
• - Real Estate Secured Loan Funds

Each fund has its distinct risk characteristics, which can be reviewed in detail on our special pages.

Risk Awareness

It is crucial to read the risk factors associated with investments in professional funds. While seeking heightened returns, these investments entail more complex risks compared to standard options. Clients ranked at Gold or above can apply for investments in these funds after acknowledging the associated risks.

Funds Overview

Funds provides an online platform for individuals to invest in loans to public companies starting from just one yen. With a remarkable track record of zero distribution delays or defaults across 567 funds composed by 114 publicly listed companies, Funds continues to prioritize the enhancement of both products and services, ensuring clients enjoy a sense of security and trust.

Unique Features of Fixed-Interest Investment at Funds

• - No Price Movements: Investments remain stable, alleviating psychological burdens and management hassle.
• - Small Investment Amounts: Starting investments at one yen allows even beginners to participate comfortably.
