FUNDINNO Enhances Strategy for Growing GMV with Fund-Based Investments

FUNDINNO's Ambitious Growth Strategy for GMV Expansion

FUNDINNO, a Tokyo-based firm, is taking significant steps towards enhancing its growth strategy to increase its gross merchandise value (GMV). With a keen focus on diversifying funding channels for unlisted companies and expanding investment opportunities for its clients, the company is consolidating its efforts for a key development: applying for registration as a Type II Financial Instruments Business Operator and Investment Management Business.

Background and Objectives

For years, FUNDINNO has established a robust environment that allows investors to make direct investments in unlisted companies through the internet or face-to-face interactions. With more than 29 billion yen in transactions, they have supported numerous companies in their growth journeys. As part of its objective to invigorate the market, the company is developing a fund-based investment scheme. This marks a significant pivot that will enable investors not only to select individual companies for investment but also to invest in portfolios managed by professionals. This approach is expected to amplify the diversification of investment options and mitigate risks for investors.

Looking Ahead: Future Plans

FUNDINNO is currently optimizing its internal structure and coordinating with relevant authorities to meet its target for registration completion by next year. Once registered, the company plans to actively engage in fundraising activities, thereby introducing new investment products to its investors. The establishment of this framework is anticipated to substantially enhance the landscape of liquidity and diversity within the unlisted equity market.
