Introduction
FRC and Fukuoka Realty Co., Ltd., believe that attracting domestic and foreign excellent investment funds to regional real estate financial markets will stimulate community development in the Fukuoka and Kyushu areas. Although we are not directly involved in community development or real estate development, we expect our acquisition of properties to lead to new funds passing to sellers and part of those funds being directed to new development, etc. With funds injected into FRC from Japan and abroad, new investment funds will flow to the Fukuoka and Kyushu areas as a whole.
Based on this perspective, we believe that we can contribute to regional revitalization and community development in the Fukuoka and Kyushu areas.
Funds will be returned to unitholders by distributing the earnings from owned assets.
Through the promotion of community development and the revitalization of regional economies in the Fukuoka and Kyushu areas, we will aim for FRC earnings stability.

Introduction
Having promoted the attraction of "growth fields and head office functions," Fukuoka Cityʼs track record in company relocations has exceeded 50 companies annually for eight consecutive years. With the progress of risk diversification and telework in the centralized area of Tokyo, more companies are considering opening bases in regional cities. Even when impacted by COVID-19, the willingness of companies to enter the market has not diminished. Fukuoka City will thus continue to make efforts to further establish companies and create employment by utilizing active PR and incentives.
Example of Major Function Relocation
Japanet Holdings Co., Ltd., launched its JAPANET@FUKUOKA project, which features Fukuoka City as one of its new major bases. In addition to relocating 12 departments, including personnel and accounting, mid-career recruitment will be strengthened, and the plan is to have commenced operations by the end of 2021.
