We have nearly 30 years of experience and accomplishments in providing English-language translations of IR-related materials such as financial results summaries, asset management reports, convocation notices, securities reports, financial results briefing materials, integrated reports, equity stories, business plans and materials on growth potential. In particular, we take pride in the quality of our IR translations for overseas investors, which is unmatched in the industry and also highly regarded by clients.

Moreover, a high and stable quality of translation is achieved as we engage at least three translators in the processes of draft translation, checking, and proofreading by a native English speaker in each project. Our translation services promise uniformity of quality of IR materials, as we emphasize thorough security management, maintenance of high confidentiality and quality control through multiple check systems.

Tokyo Stock Exchange will require that companies listed on the Prime Market simultaneously disclose in English and Japanese financial closing information and timely disclosure information starting in April 2025.

The mandate for simultaneous disclosure in English and Japanese is limited to the Prime Market at present. However, because English-language IR disclosure materials are an essential means of engaging overseas investors, we believe that companies listed on the Standard Market and Growth Market should also actively convert their disclosure documents into English.

Amid this trend, the use of AI translation is attracting attention, but there is a major pitfall here. When free, cloud-based AI translation is used, unpublished information entered into the service is stored on the cloud as AI learning data, and there is a risk that such information may be leaked to third parties. In addition, services utilizing overseas servers with less credibility are vulnerable to information extraction, and information may be used illegally by insiders or other unauthorized parties.

At Transpacific Enterprises, we observe strict management of our translation team to ensure thorough security and maintain a high level of confidentiality and help translate Japanese-language materials in a safe manner. As a service not offered by machine translation or AI translation, we listen to companies translating their IR financial closing materials into English for the first time to accommodate their needs, provide appropriate advice, and make the best possible proposals to increase investment opportunities. We help connect companies with overseas investors by providing high-quality translation services that accurately convey their message. For companies that have already disclosed information in English, we review past English documents to ensure consistency in terminology and provide the most appropriate translation. Please take this opportunity to consult Transpacific Enterprises.
