The investment amount per investment is expected to range from several hundred million to several billion yen, with investments in 150-200 companies in total.

The fund has already received commitments to invest a total of over ¥50 billion, including from Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Mizuho Bank, Nippon Life Insurance and Daiwa Securities Group.
