Investment counsel

Japanese: 投資顧問業 - とうしこもんぎょう(英語表記)investment counsel
Investment counsel

A profession that involves building assets through advice and management of clients' (corporate pensions, corporations, individuals, etc.) assets using specialized knowledge. In Europe and the United States, they have established a reputation as a highly trustworthy financial institution. In Japan, the Investment Advisory Business Act, enacted in May 1986, created the investment advisory business. However, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act came into force in September 2007, and the Investment Advisory Business Act was abolished. As a result, the name of the investment advisory business was changed to "investment management business" and "investment advisory and agency business." Also, in the past, even if one only wanted to engage in discretionary investment business (currently "investment management business"), one had to register as an investment advisor (currently "investment advisory and agency business") and then be approved to engage in discretionary investment business, but now both can be registered separately. As a result, the business has expanded and diversified.

顧客(企業年金、法人、個人等)の資産の運用について、専門知識による助言と管理を通じて資産づくりに関与する職業。欧米においては信用度の高い金融機関としてその地位は確立されている。日本では1986年(昭和61)5月に成立した投資顧問業法により、投資顧問業という業態ができた。しかし、2007年(平成19)9月の金融商品取引法施行により投資顧問業法は廃止された。これに伴い、投資顧問業は「投資運用業」および「投資助言・代理業」に呼称が改められた。また以前では投資一任業(現在の「投資運用業」)だけを行いたい場合でも、投資助言者(現在の「投資助言・代理業」)として登録したのちに、投資一任業を行う認可を受ける必要があったが、現在はともに別々に登録ができるようになっている。そのため、業務についても拡大・多様化している。
