Japan Exchange Group to set up Osaka Head Office
At its board of directors meeting held today, Japan Exchange Group, Inc. (JPX) resolved to establish an Osaka Head Office on April 1, 2022.
JPX was established in 2013 through the business combination of Tokyo Stock Exchange Group, Inc. and Osaka Securities Exchange Co., Ltd, and current operations in Osaka consist of Osaka Exchange, Inc., which operates the derivatives market, and an office that carries out core operations in the Kansai region for other group companies including listed company-related and self-regulatory functions.
In addition, the Osaka site would take over the entire operation of the Group in the event of a wide-ranging disaster in the capital region. To this end, JPX has decided to establish the Osaka Head Office from the viewpoint of strengthening this site’s activities as its center of business in the Kansai region.
The address of the office will be: 1-8-16 Kitahama, Chuo-ku, Osaka City, Osaka, 541-0041.
An “Osaka IPO Center” will be set up on April 1, 2022, the same day as the establishment of the Osaka Head Office.
