Frequently asked questions
What entity sponsors the SEGA Pension Fund?
SEGA SAMMY Holdings, the Japanese conglomerate formed in 2004 by the merger of video game publisher SEGA and pachinko manufacturer Sammy Corporation, sponsors the fund. The group is controlled by founder Hajime Satomi and led by his son Haruki Satomi as president and group CEO.
How does the fund's investment pool relate to the parent company's operating businesses?
The fund invests retirement assets for the group's employees, with the parent company's multi-vertical revenue streams — video games, pachinko machines, and integrated resorts — forming the contributory base. Separately, the holding company holds direct real property assets like the Phoenix Seagaia Resort and the Paradise City joint venture in South Korea that are outside the pension fund but reflect the group's broader asset footprint.
Does the SEGA Pension Fund hold real estate directly?
The parent group holds substantial real property. Directly held sites include the mixed-use Paradise City resort in Incheon, developed as a joint venture with Paradise Group, and the Phoenix Seagaia Resort in Miyazaki. Commercial properties in Tokyo, such as Sumitomo Fudosan Osaki Garden Tower, are also part of the group's portfolio.
What role does Hajime Satomi play in the group and the fund?
Hajime Satomi is the founder of Sammy Corporation and serves as chairman of SEGA SAMMY Holdings. While day-to-day group operations are led by his son Haruki Satomi, the elder Satomi's position maintains family influence over the strategic direction, including pension fund governance.
Are there philanthropic structures associated with the sponsor?
Yes. The SEGA SAMMY ARTS FOUNDATION operates as the group's primary philanthropic vehicle, supporting cultural and artistic initiatives in Japan. The foundation is separate from the pension fund's fiduciary obligations.
