Aizawa Securities Co., Ltd. (Location: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Takuya Aizawa; hereinafter "the Company") announced the "Aizawa Declaration" in April 2025 as a resolution and commitment to all stakeholders. In this declaration, the Company stated its aim to "create a company where each employee is respected, supported in their growth and challenges, and can work with a sense of purpose and vitality."
Currently, with ongoing price increases and changes in the social environment, each employee's living environment is significantly affected. We believe that sustainable corporate value improvement (sustainable profitability and capital efficiency improvement) is only possible when there is a workplace environment where employees can work with peace of mind.
From this perspective, we will implement a wage revision for all employees* starting April 1, 2026, with a monthly increase of 5,000 yen for managerial positions and 12,000 yen for non-managerial positions. The total increase, including regular salary increments, will average 5.3%. Notably, the cumulative increase over the past three years amounts to 18.1%.
Furthermore, with the aim of strengthening our human resource base, which contributes to medium-to-long-term corporate value improvement, we will increase the starting salary by 12,000 yen compared to the previous year for employees joining in April 2026.
The Company will continue to strive for medium-to-long-term and sustainable growth by supporting employees' autonomous growth, aiming to achieve both job satisfaction and ease of work.
