2. The Background of Establishment Japanese economy has been experiencing an unprecedented recession, and more than ten years have already passed. Financial institutions suffered from the recession seriously. Especially banks, who are to support the mainstay of Japanese economy, exhausted and could not support the corporate sector any longer. Under the circumstances some financial institutions and corporations started forming corporate rehabilitation funds as new business seeds. The funds have supported such corporations with financial difficulties and have been generating certain positive result so far. We, NIC Corporation, want to establish our Corporate Rehabilitation Fund - Japan Format – (“the Fund” hereafter), which is not based on, or even beyond the framework of conventional corporate rehabilitation funds. The Fund aims to utilize NIC’s business network resources, i.e. the cross-industrial business network, for any corporation completing the rehabilitation plan to develop their business basis effectively. With this scheme, the Fund can offer financial support as well as business development support at the same time. The rehabilitation, therefore, becomes more reliable, which can result in attractive dividend distribution to fund equity participants.
