ACGA submitted a letter to the Ministry of Finance (MOF) in Japan to express their deep concerns about the direction and substance of recently proposed amendments to the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act (FEFTA). They said “If passed, this would cut the threshold for mandatory pre-reporting of foreign investments in restricted sectors from 10% to 1%, and will add a further restriction on foreign asset managers who wish to engage with such companies on various governance and business issues.”
