Corporate History

The Japan Securities Exchange was created as a quasi-governmental organization in 1943 through a merger of all of the eleven stock exchanges existing in Japan at that time and was dissolved four years later in 1947. In order to lease the stock exchanges and other facilities operated by the Exchange in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and elsewhere to newly founded membership organization-type stock exchanges upon its dissolution, the Exchange contributed these assets in kind as an incorporator, thereupon established Heiwa Real Estate Co., Ltd.
