research content

I worked as a securities analyst for many years in financial institutions, mainly doing corporate strategy, financial analysis, and valuation calculations in the healthcare, consumer goods, and retail industries. Since then, I have been researching the efficiency of research and development and supply chains in the pharmaceutical industry both in Japan and overseas, and also financial systems and corporate governance in the Nordic countries.

Research and Education Policy

In an increasingly complex economy, we will conduct a qualitative assessment and quantitative analysis of the financial market and healthcare industries, which will become increasingly important in the future, from the perspective of "humanistic management."

Message

Please strike a balance between the three axes of qualitative and quantitative evaluation, centered around the axis of "humanistic management."
