Transforming English Investor Relations with OWLBASE

One World Link, based in Tokyo, has recently announced the official release of its innovative investor relations support system, OWLBASE, on September 12, 2025. This state-of-the-art solution has been meticulously designed to address the challenges faced by the IR departments of publicly traded companies. As the global investment landscape evolves, accurate and prompt English language disclosure has never been more crucial. Companies are under increasing pressure to enhance the precision of their English communications, effectively convey their messages to overseas investors, and manage swift information disclosure despite limited resources.

The Current Landscape

In recent years, international institutional investors have pointed out that many English communications from Japanese companies often appear awkward and difficult to read. Additionally, these companies face significant constraints regarding manpower and time, making quick disclosure responses complicated. Rising translation costs and the inherent limitations of AI translations exacerbate these issues, necessitating a more reliable solution.

Furthermore, starting from April 2025, dual disclosure in Japanese and English for the prime market will be mandatory, intensifying the need for rapid yet accurate English communications.

OWLBASE: An Innovative Solution

In light of these challenges, One World Link has leveraged its extensive experience in supporting English IR to create OWLBASE, which combines advanced artificial intelligence with a robust knowledge database and expert reviews. A standout feature of this tool is its ability to register a company's previously published IR documents (in both Japanese and English) into a unique knowledge database that merges with AI capabilities. This innovative mechanism ensures that specific terminologies and expressions are consistently managed and updated, resulting in coherent and effective English communications for investors.

Key Features of OWLBASE

1. Speed with AI:
OWLBASE utilizes AI to rapidly create initial drafts of disclosure documents, enabling quick responses to urgent financial reports or press releases. This allows IR teams to focus on crafting strategic messages rather than getting bogged down in process.

2. Consistency through a Knowledge Database:
The tool centralizes the management of terminology and expressions from existing IR materials. This ensures that translations are consistently updated, providing stable quality across all disclosure content.

3. Quality Assurance by Experts:
Professional translations are backed by native English speakers with expertise in finance, securities, and accounting. They enhance nuances not adequately addressed by AI, ensuring that the IR communications meet international standards of persuasiveness and clarity.

4. Optimization for Investor Communication:
Instead of merely offering literal translations, OWLBASE optimizes English to resonate with investors, facilitating trustworthy dialogues in the global market.

Vision from the President

According to President and CEO Mickie Omatsuzawa, "OWLBASE was developed to tackle the challenges of balancing speed and accuracy that our clients in the IR sector face. By merging AI efficiency with over 15 years of expertise in English IR, we aim to enable effective disclosures that resonate with global investors. Furthermore, our system will allow companies to continuously manage their unique English expressions derived from their accumulated IR documents. With OWLBASE, we aspire to elevate Japan's IR activities to be more strategic and globally open."

Future Prospects

In the upcoming phases, OWLBASE aims to expand its implementation primarily among listed companies on the Tokyo Stock Exchange's prime market while bolstering support for IR departments in Japan. Additionally, there are plans to enhance engagement with global investors across Asia and Europe and to evolve into an AI-driven IR communication platform.
