flag Japan’s listed companies are expected to drop to 3,778 by end-2025 due to mergers and stricter listing rules.

flag Japan’s number of listed companies is projected to fall to 3,778 by year-end 2025, a drop of 58 from the previous year, driven by a surge in mergers, acquisitions, and management buyouts. flag The Tokyo Stock Exchange’s push for capital efficiency and stricter listing standards has discouraged new entries, particularly among smaller firms. flag This marks a sharp reversal from a decade of growth following the 2013 exchange merger. flag While larger, more investable companies are emerging, concerns remain over reduced market diversity and fewer opportunities for finding undervalued stocks.
