The 2nd UK–Japan Transition Finance Forum 2026 was successfully held.

• FinCity.Tokyo held the 2nd UK–Japan Transition Finance Forum 2026 in London on 23 June. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all participants and speakers, as well as to the GX Promotion Agency, Nomura Holdings Inc., and The CityUK for their support.

From FinCity.Tokyo, Executive Director Tokio Morita joined the forum and held a dialogue with Dr. Dai Yamawaki, Vice President (Equities) at Nomura Asset Management U.K., on the topic of “Prime Minister Takaichi’s Responsible Proactive Fiscal Policy and Investment in Green Transformation (GX).”

We also gained valuable insights through the substantive panel discussions with expert speakers, exploring how Japan and the UK are jointly advancing financing approaches that support the transition to net zero.

We extend our sincere appreciation to the GX Promotion Agency, Nomura International, and TheCityUK for their support in making this event possible. We also wish to express our heartfelt thanks to all the speakers who joined us.

At this year’s forum, we presented and released the Joint Statement on Findings and Recommendations as the outcome of these discussions.
