2. Operating model

As an investment-management-business operator, SBI’s asset-management layer responsible for investment-trust management (投資信託委託) (formation / management) of public investment trusts, ETF / index products, and investment advice (including alternative-investment management subsidiaries). Distribution is anchored on SBI Securities‘s online sales funnel and SBI HD‘s financial ecosystem (the securities / banking / insurance / crypto customer funnel).

• It pins down the intersection of low-cost index fund competition and the NISA expansion.
• It provides a contrast anchor for the independent / online house versus the affiliated majors (Nomura Asset Management / Mitsubishi UFJ Asset Management).
