Description

Annual Securities Reports (有価証券報告書, Yūka shōken hōkokusho) are prepared by companies in Japan under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (金融商品取引法, Kin'yū shōhin torihikihō) to disclose information about the company. It states the company's general, business, facilities, and financial conditions and is an important document in obtaining the details of companies. Companies which fulfill certain conditions are required to submit an Annual Securities Report within 3 months after the end of that business year for the sake of public interest and investor protection. For details on who is required to submit the report, please refer to the 「企業内容等開示(ディスクロージャー)制度の概要」 on the Kanto Local Finance Bureau's website. The reports are disclosed on the Financial Services Agency's EDINET (Electronic Disclosure for Investors' NETwork), which is an electronic disclosure system for Securities Reports and other disclosure documents based on the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law.
