FUNDINNO has raised a total of JPY 4.6bn (USD 31m) through convertible equity and third-party allotment of shares, taking the cumulative amount raised since its founding to JPY 8.4bn. The convertible equity was converted to stock after the qualifying funding was raised, resulting in new shareholders, and bringing the total number of shareholders to 206.

The purpose of this funding is to further improve the quality of FUNDINNO’s services, as well as strengthen corporate governance and compliance systems in order to achieve sustainable growth and long-term improvement in corporate value, and to provide trust and peace of mind to stakeholders.
