Green Monster Inc. launched a new service, Anyone Can Receive Shareholder Benefits, within Kabu Tasu, introducing a system under which users can receive products equivalent to shareholder benefits by lottery after purchasing demo shares and meeting the specified conditions. Kabu Tasu is an app that enables demo trading using actual share-price data and is used by a wide range of users, from beginners to experienced investors. The service may make shareholder benefits a starting point for beginning to invest and may also lead to IR support for companies.
The service is intended to attract individual investors by helping them understand and experience shareholder benefit programs, while also creating a new point of contact with potential customers for companies that offer such programs. A survey by the Japan Securities Dealers Association found that learning about shareholder benefits often prompts people to consider investing. Kabu Tasu is designed to use this interest to promote investment education and understanding of companies.
