Supporting individual asset formation through the fusion of PropTech (real estate tech) and FinTech

Our company has entered into a business alliance agreement with SBI SECURITIES CO., LTD. (Director and Executive Officer Masato Takamura; headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo; hereinafter "SBI Securities") and its subsidiary SBI MONEY PLAZA Co., Ltd. (Director and Executive Officer Tomohiko Ota; headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo; hereinafter "SBI money plaza"). 

In recent years, due to the declining birthrate and aging population, the bankruptcy of public pensions, and the diversification of work styles, asset building that does not rely on the government or affiliated companies has come to be emphasized. In addition, due to the evolution of AI and ICT technology, new assets such as investment advice by "robo-advisor" (* 1) and small investment by crowdfunding reduce the hassle of conventional investment and greatly expand the possibilities of investment targets. Operational services are attracting attention.

Against this background, GA Technologies, which provides PropTech (real estate tech) services, and SBI Securities and SBI Money Plaza, which lead FinTech, have signed a business alliance agreement. Most recently, we will introduce GA Technologies services to customers of SBI SECURITIES and SBI MONEY PLAZA and hold joint seminars to support customers' asset formation from a wide range of investment products. Going forward, we will aim to expand opportunities for individuals to build assets beyond the boundaries of finance and real estate by leveraging both the strengths of the three companies, namely technology and reality.

(* 1) Robo-advisor is a system that provides advice on investment trusts and asset management that are most suitable for you from a personal computer or smartphone.
