Overview
A preventive approach is fundamental to enhancing our society's overall resilience in the face of disaster. This calls for alliances among multiple stakeholders and the development of imaginative social technologies. In this session, we will describe the financial technologies which DBJ has developed for use in disaster management, such as BCM-rated loans, disaster response measures and reconstruction funds. We will also discuss some projects we have undertaken in cooperation with the Cabinet Office and other government agencies to improve the disaster resilience of our client companies and of industry as a whole.
