Schroder Investment Management (Japan) Limited

Public sources do not name a dedicated CEO or CIO for this Japan-registered entity. Investment decisions are executed by the local team of portfolio managers and analysts who report through Schroders plc's global investment management structure. Schroders' global CIO is Johanna Kyrklund, with regional heads overseeing Asia-Pacific equity and fixed income teams.

The Japan entity benefits from Schroders plc's global research platform, which includes over 200 investment professionals across the Asia-Pacific region. The team applies fundamental bottom-up research on listed Japanese equities and fixed income instruments, supplemented by proprietary quantitative models and macroeconomic analysis from the group's economics team.

It operates as an investment management company authorized and regulated by the Japanese Financial Services Agency (FSA) under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. The subsidiary both manages money directly — through funds and segregated accounts — and distributes Schroders group products to Japanese institutional investors. It is not a pure distribution office.

The entity primarily covers Japanese equities (including TOPIX and Nikkei 225 constituents) and yen-denominated fixed income (JGBs, corporate bonds). It also manages global multi-asset mandates for Japanese clients, investing across international equities, global bonds, real assets, and alternatives through the wider Schroders platform. Private assets access is provided via Schroders Capital.

While the Japan entity's public filing suggests a focus on public securities and fund-of-funds, it can offer Schroders Capital's private assets capabilities — including infrastructure, real estate, private equity, and private credit — to Japanese institutional investors as part of multi-asset mandates or discrete private markets programs (per Schroders Capital website, 2024).
