NIB Research has entered its 7th year of operation and we would like to thank our clients, business partners and shareholders for their ongoing support. Furthermore, we are extremely grateful for cooperation from the management and IR teams of listed Japanese companies for accommodating our various client requests which resulted in continued strong demand for our proprietary research and IR interpreting / support services. Our investment advisory service also continued to do well, and we realize this was only possible as companies allocated their precious time to engage with us, so we would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude.
Some notable highlights for the year that ended in January 2020 were as follows:
