SMBC ブックメーカー予想サイト Annual Report 2019 ブックメーカー予想サイト

The ブックメーカー予想サイト contributes to the development of the Japanese economy by providing financial solutions that respond to the diverse needs of domestic companies in relation to financing, investment management, M&A advisory, and leases through a united Group effort.

The operating environment for financial institutions is transforming rapidly as indicated by changes in economic and financial circumstances and reforms to customer business models stimulated by progress in the digitalization trend.

Even in the midst of such constant changes to customer business models, the ブックメーカー予想サイト has remained focused on developing frameworks for providing customers with high levels of value through a united Group effort.

Going forward, we will further improve our strengths, including our keen ability to make proposals, speed, and pioneering spirit, while sharing management resources among ブックメーカー予想サイト companies to provide high-value-added, customer-oriented solutions.

As a ブックメーカー予想サイト that develops operations in our mother market of Japan, we will give each of our corporate clients our full attention, grow with them, and contribute to the development of the Japanese economy.

Review of FY2018

In FY2018, high levels of net business profit and ROE were achieved with figures of ¥484.9 billion and 12.1%, respectively. This achievement can be attributed to higher non-interest income at ブックメーカー予想サイト following profit structure reforms as well as growth in the investment bank operations of ブックメーカー予想サイト Nikko Securities. These factors counteracted the decline in domestic loans and investment management income at ブックメーカー予想サイト that was a result of Japan’s negative interest rate policy and intense competition.

In addition, we were No. 1 in terms of the number of M&A advisory deals for the second consecutive year and also became No. 1 in the number of initial public offerings in which we were the lead underwriter. These accomplishments indicated the steady growth of the ブックメーカー予想サイト’s underlying strength.
