Tokyo is entering a new phase of financial market development. Asset ownership reform, corporate governance progress, emerging manager support, cross-border capital formation, and rapid advances in AI are reshaping the way global investors assess Japan. FGF New York 2026 brings these themes to the centre of global finance.
The forum is designed to connect Tokyo's public-private financial ecosystem with senior decision-makers in New York, creating a platform for direct dialogue, investment consideration, and long-term relationship-building.
Tokyo's positioning as a resilient, trusted, and globally connected financial centre — its reforms, its ambitions, and the strategic bridge to New York's capital markets.
The investment, infrastructure, and governance questions behind frontier AI — compute, semiconductors, energy, data infrastructure, and whether trusted non-US/non-China ecosystems can shape a balanced AI future.
How family offices and long-horizon private capital are reshaping global allocation patterns — legacy, culture, sustainable investment, direct investing, and why Japan may matter more to the next generation.
An invitation-only evening reception bringing together FinCity.Tokyo representatives, New York-based financial leaders, public-sector guests, partners, speakers, and selected investors ahead of the main forum.
The reception provides an informal setting for senior participants to begin the conversation before the roundtable and main forum — strengthening relationships and introducing Tokyo's message in a focused environment.
