Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation - Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation

Japanese: 日本電信電話[株] - にっぽんでんしんでんわ

Abbreviation: NTT. The company was established in April 1985 when Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Public Corporation (NTT) was privatized based on the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Company Law and other laws (established in 1984). The company responded to the demand for companies to enter the market as the information society progressed and to break the closed nature of the telecommunications industry, which had been a monopoly under the public corporation system. In July 1999, the company was restructured into a holding company, and operations were divided into a long-distance communications company, NTT Communications, and two regional communications companies, one in the east and one in the west. NTT DoCoMo and NTT Data are also under the holding company. In December 2000, the Telecommunications Council (an advisory body to the former Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications) submitted a report urging a reorganization that would reduce the holding company's investment ratio in group companies. As the giant of domestic communications, NTT has a monopoly on regional telephone calls and holds a nearly 50% share of mobile and long-distance telephone calls. Headquarters in Tokyo. The company's capital in 2011 was 937.9 billion yen, and its sales for the fiscal year ending March 2011 were 10,305 billion yen. The sales breakdown for the fiscal year ending March 2011 (%) was regional communications business 34%, long distance and international communications business 12%, mobile communications business 41%, data communications business 10, and others 3. The company is the core of the NTT Group's R&D, with approximately 90% of its employees being R&D staff.
