CEO’s Message
"SPARX will continue to move ahead
and pursue its long-standing vision---
to become the most trusted and respected
investment company in the world."
I founded SPARX in July 1989 with one goal in mind--making our company the most trusted and respected investment company in the world. Since then, SPARX has never deviated from that commitment--to be a global standard-bearer recognized worldwide for its fundamentals-based investment principles and first-class client services. Our firm became the first Japanese alternative asset management company to publicly list its shares in December of 2001. And in the nearly six years since that successful initial public offering, SPARX has been able to substantially increase its assets under management on behalf of an expanding client base.
An important milestone was reached in October 2006 when SPARX transformed itself into a holding company, a move toward evolving into a group enterprise with diverse revenue sources. We are now in the process of aggressively building an institutionalized investment platform for the entire group structure that taps into broader regional growth by positioning ourselves as the center for Asia investment intelligence. At the same time, we continue to strengthen our existing operations in Tokyo dedicated to Japanese equity investment research.
As Asia's premier asset management company, SPARX is committed to providing actionable investment intelligence and other unrivaled client services to our global base of investors.
And we look forward to your continued support as we pursue these ambitious initiatives.
