Hello, I'm Nobue Yamanaka, a certified financial planner. (CFP®) I became an independent financial planner in 2002 and have been involved in various projects ranging from asset management to the establishment of defined contribution pension schemes (401 k) and I work as the President & Representative Director of "Asset Advantage Co. Ltd." which provides individuals with financial consultation and provides consultations for corporations.
While studying at university in the US, I learned that financial planning services for individuals were common and I wanted to bring these same services to Japan. Japanese financial institutions still do not provide comprehensive services in English, thus making it difficult for non-Japanese to understand the Japanese financial system and the services they offer. Therefore, I would like to provide consulting services on financial planning for those non-Japanese living in Japan and help them live a better life.
I also provide corporate seminars for non-Japanese workers. I can explain that Japanese government pension system and company defined contribution pension system as well.
Fiscal knowledge is very useful when we are making a life plan, but this knowledge is meaningless when there is no way or means to implement it in your daily life. As such I would like to play the role of a translator that transforms the financial and economic information available in Japan in to a form that you can make practical use of.
