Japanese investors are increasingly allocating capital to overseas impact investments, with assets managed for Japanese clients at BlueOrchard Finance rising to ¥150 billion ($998 million) over three years, now comprising 20% of the firm’s global portfolio.
This growth reflects rising demand for projects delivering social and environmental impact alongside financial returns, particularly in emerging markets.
Meanwhile, Rakuten issued Japan’s highest-yielding yen bond of 2025—a ¥82 billion perpetual subordinated note with a 4.691% coupon—drawing over ¥500 billion in demand, including more than ¥120 billion from overseas investors, highlighting growing international interest in Japanese debt amid rising yields and shifting monetary policy.
