Account settlement disclosure support Securities report / Earnings report preparation support

We provide support for listed public companies and companies required to make continuous disclosures so that they can prepare their disclosure documentation each quarter. Our specialized staff with their knowledge of disclosure, and the dedicated systems that we have developed are the core functions of our support services.

Service summary

PRONEXUS offers four support functions to enable clients to prepare their disclosure documentation.

Consulting support

Through our seminars, guidebooks and information website, we provide clients with information about the latest regulations required for the preparation of disclosure documents. Our disclosure specialists check the disclosure documents that our clients prepare, and offer them advice.

System support

We offer our own dedicated systems (PRONEXUS WORKS* and WORKS-i) that clients can use to efficiently prepare documents that are suitable for disclosing on TDnet to the Tokyo Stock Exchange and on EDINET to the Financial Services Agency.

• * Disclosure infrastructure that is used by 60% of listed companies in Japan.

Security support

Our Data Center (which we built and operate) boasts a level of security equivalent to that employed by financial institutions. Here we keep confidential client data prior to its disclosure, and store disclosure document data safely and securely during its preparation and after its submission.

Client support

We operate a call center exclusively for our clients that can quickly and accurately respond to questions about schedule adjustment and other aspects of progress management, as well as queries about system operation. Our sales staff provide a high level of client support for their disclosure process.
