Mitsui & Co. Digital Asset Management Launches Business Matching with Miyazaki Taiyo Bank

Mitsui & Co. Digital Asset Management, Ltd. (the "Company") is pleased to announce that The Miyazaki Taiyo Bank, Ltd. ("Miyazaki Taiyo Bank") has joined as a new business matching partner for our asset management service, "ALTERNA." Through this partnership, we will begin introducing ALTERNA to Miyazaki Taiyo Bank's customers via the bank's channels. As a means of medium- to long-term asset formation utilizing digital securities, we will provide investment opportunities in funds backed by real estate and other assets offered by ALTERNA to customers in Miyazaki Prefecture. Miyazaki Taiyo Bank operates under the motto, "There is no development of the bank without the prosperity of the region, and no service to the region without the development of the bank." They aim to be a bank continuously chosen by local customers by actively providing unique financial services. Meanwhile, our company promotes the slogan, "A new choice, neither savings nor stocks," and is working to expand investment opportunities in stable assets such as large-scale urban real estate and infrastructure—previously limited to institutional investors—to individual investors. By partnering with Miyazaki Taiyo Bank, which provides community-based financial services in Miyazaki Prefecture, we believe we can further contribute to the medium- to long-term asset formation of the people of Miyazaki. We will work together to co-create a new asset formation model within the prefecture.
