III. Business Experiences
Ushio Matsunami, 松浪 潮
Started its business career with Mistui Trust & Banking Co.,Ltd., current Mitsui Sumitomo Trust.
In its approximately 20 years business experience with Mitsui Trust, worked for Legal & Compliance Department, International Credit Assessment Department, Los Angeles Branch, Head Office Foreign Business Department and other departments.
He joined the bank before the age of "Bubble Economy" in Japan. In the time of "Bubble Economy" he spent busy days. Then in the "Post Bubble" age , the attitude of the bank had turned "fundamentally aggressive" to "principally negative". He was a senior manager of supervisory department when the bank merged with another trust bank. Thereafter, he left the bank.
He understands that the experience in Mitsui Trust has become a core of his business career. After left the bank, he mainly work for financial consulting business or M&A advisory business, and he currently has a company of M&A advisory business.
In the trust bank, he worked for international business of the bank in so many years. The time in the Los Angeles office had huge influence on his way of thinking. He was a foreigner there. The society of the United States has been a society of diversity. It was a society that equal opportunity is principally guaranteed. The business society of the United States has had so little concern with “lifetime employment” that many businessmen has tended to change their jobs in order to realize their promotion. A business man should be an professional rather than an man of its institution or its company.
He has thought the society of Japan should be the similar society as the United States in several years. Many years have passed since he left Los Angeles, though his forecast has not realized yet. Nevertheless, he still think that the Japanese society tend to move to the similar society as the United States. He admits regrettably that there is more of innovation in the United states than in Japan. He thinks that one of the reason why the society of the United States is more innovational than the society of Japan is in respect for diversification in American Society.
It can be said that the current destination of his business career has made this legal office focus on people from overseas in Japan.
