■ Background of the Report's Release
Globally, the source of corporate value is shifting from equipment and machinery to 'human knowledge and skills,' with intangible assets accounting for 92% of the S&P 500's market capitalization (*1). However, 'investment in people' by Japanese companies remains extremely low at 0.1% of GDP compared to major countries (*2), indicating a structural lag. Amidst this, the revision of the 'Human Capital Visualization Guidelines' implemented in March 2026 mandated the 'description of human resource strategies linked to corporate strategies.' With this revision, companies are held responsible not just for disclosing numbers, but for telling a story (narrative disclosure) about 'why that human resource strategy leads to corporate value.'
On the other hand, according to a survey conducted by our company (*3), while 'approximately 80% (76.7%) of management have a heightened sense of crisis regarding recruitment activities,' only '34.7% of companies can constantly formulate recruitment plans working backward from business plans,' revealing a 'strategic fault line' between management strategy and the recruitment front line. As this 'strategic fault line'—the discrepancy between management's sense of crisis and practical operations—becomes more serious, our company has published this report to provide concrete practical measures for Japanese companies to break away from traditional externally dependent, disposable recruitment, and to update recruitment into an 'asset' that contributes to the enhancement of medium-to-long-term corporate value.
