The Japan Financial Services Agency has published supplementary materials to its “Focus on Industry-specific Support” guidance, aimed at helping front-line staff at financial institutions better assess business feasibility and strengthen their ability to provide management improvement support. The materials include management support examples and case studies intended for use in internal study sessions, and a “reverse look-up perspective” that organises key points by funding and industry for use in loan consultation work, linking common consultation topics back to industry-specific support perspectives. The agency also noted that the outsourcing contractor’s related project website has been closed, and pointed users to the Financial Services Agency’s special webpage and an accompanying report on outsourced projects to expand and promote the industry-specific support focus.
