“IIC” represents “Independent-Integrity-Consulting” and that is what our firm is about at its core. As a wholly independent consulting firm in Japan, we are able to provide our clients with swift and tailored advice, not influenced by possible conflicts of interest that a firm affiliated with a major financial group may face due to its business ties with plan sponsors.
With over 40 highly qualified professionals based in Tokyo and Osaka, we provide actuarial valuations for accounting purposes, advise on plan design and implementation and deliver asset management consulting for employee benefit plans to more than 700 clients at home and abroad.
We are proud that our professional staff are committed to providing clients with speedy and accurate business solutions that enable them to manage and optimize their retirement plans.
