ITOCHU operates many different next-generation financial services for personal asset management, including a financial education service, a loan-style investment platform and other initiatives through the startups we invest in, with a focus on the FX business of Gaitame.com Co., Ltd.

Having invested in Gaitame.com in September 2022, we have strengthened our asset management business. In February 2025, the company made Money Partners Group Co., Ltd.—a former competitor—a wholly-owned subsidiary, absorbing its FX business and driving the expansion of Gaitame.com's customer base. It is now a major domestic FX operator with over 900,000 accounts.
Gaitame.com operates under a “customer-first” philosophy, leveraging its strengths of offering services that enable long-term management and providing high-quality information tailored to customer needs. Utilizing the ITOCHU Group's extensive internal and external networks, we will support Gaitame.com in the continued expansion of its customer base and seek to achieve collaboration with our retail finance business to expand various next-generation financial services for personal asset management.
