Head of Nihon M&A Center Holdings' ASEAN operations Yusuke Ojima highlights the ongoing strong economic ties between Japan and ASEAN, noting significant Japanese investments in Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Singapore, and Thailand, with a two-way trade amount of US$241.1 billion in 2023.
AtoG Capital is spearheading the expansion of cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the ASEAN region, starting with a partnership in Malaysia with CK MAC Global Sdn. Bhd., a company specializing in CNC machinery.

Aiming to foster partnerships between Japanese companies and ASEAN SMEs, AtoG Capital is committed to supporting the restructuring of these businesses to foster successful collaborations.

Yusuke Ojima, head of Nihon M&A Center Holdings' ASEAN operations, emphasizes the historical business ties between Japan and ASEAN, noting that Japanese businesses seek to diversify in ASEAN's dynamic economies due to Japan's saturated domestic market.

In 2023, Japan's two-way trade with ASEAN reached US$241.1 billion with substantial investments in Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Singapore, and Thailand.

Nihon M&A Center Thailand has closed several deals since 2021, highlighting their robust investment strategy.

With an aim to empower ASEAN mid-cap companies globally, AtoG Capital supports restructuring and share sales, aligning businesses with Japanese standards through its Post-Merger Integration approach.

This strategy enhances operational efficiency, minimizing costs and management involvement in strategic decision-making.
