From Japan straight out to the world: the web site for news and information

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) formulated the “Global Financial City: Tokyo” Vision (hereon in referred to as “the Vision”) in November of 2017. In order to properly respond to major changes in the international finance environment and establish Tokyo as a global financial hub, the Vision is now being updated.

We are happy to announce that we have drafted the revised version of the “Global Financial City: Tokyo” Vision (available in English and Japanese) and are currently inviting comments from the public around the world on this as detailed below.

Going forward, we plan to take into account the opinions received which will be used to formulate a final plan that will be published around this autumn. We look forward to hearing your comments.
