Keiko has worked across various fields, including International Finance Reporting Standards (IFRS) implementation, enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementation, and various regulatory compliance laws, such as Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), anti-money laundering (AML), and Volcker Rule.

Building a better working world

“Today, society is facing major problems such as aging, inequality and global warming. Collaboration among the public, academic, and private sectors is essential to solving these pain points. As part of the activities of the RegTech team, we have launched several initiatives and are working hard to foster such an ecosystem that emphasizes diversity.
At the same time, for the past 25 years, I have been involved in supporting an orphanage. Amid economic development, some children are left behind in society. I am always thinking about what we can do to bring smiles to their faces. I will continue to do my best to make their happiness a reality.”
