Human Capital

Our Group requires all employees to share and embody the six values, and uses them as a model for human resources strategies such as the human resource evaluation system, recruitment and training.

We will foster an environment that encourages both self-development and the pursuit of new challenges, enabling every employee to continuously strive for personal growth with a sense of fairness and a commitment to being at the forefront of the times.
While focusing on OJT (On the Job Training), we also provide OFF-JT (OFF the Job Training), where employees can learn skills away from the workplace, and SD (Self Development) to train new graduates and mid-career hires alike to be able to put into practice the values we share.

In addition to ensuring that each employee acquires the skills necessary for their current work, we are expanding our training programs to include position-specific training and reskilling training to help employees achieve proactive and autonomous career development. Beyond group training, we also offer online training, support for distance learning, and allowances for those who wish to gain qualifications, making it possible to study in line with each individual’s career path.

Our Group believes that having a diverse workforce that can exercise their individual abilities will enhance our corporate value.
We develop human resources based on their level of contribution, such as by implementing a fast-track system that promotes people to high-level positions as early as possible, regardless of their personal attributes (such as their organizational background, age, or gender), if they are able to exhibit their own skills and abilities while also being able to draw out the skills and abilities of others, or if they are able to be highly effective at implementing our values.
Furthermore, to support the self-motivated career development of our employees, we operate a system called the Career Challenge System, an internal recruitment system.

We are working to secure the human resources needed to expand our business as a tech company by setting up IT courses for new graduates and launching the recruitment of IT personnel from overseas.
We also fulfill the legally required employment rate for people with disabilities and, through our recruitment efforts, we attract individuals with diverse backgrounds, extending beyond any single industry.

In 2024, one year after SBI Sumishin Net Bank was listed, we established an employee stock ownership plan. In addition to supporting the building of assets by our employees, we aim to improve our employees’ sense of participation in management and increase our corporate value through their acquisition and holding company shares. Also, employees who join the stock ownership plan receive a 20% bonus on their contributions. As of May 2024, the stock ownership plan membership rate was 59.60%, which is significantly higher than the 36.97%* membership rate in the Tokyo Stock Exchange’s survey of employee stock ownership plan.

SBI Sumishin Net Bank is focusing on investing in human capital based on engagement surveys. In fiscal 2024, we relocated and consolidated our offices with the goal of creating a working environment where everyone can work comfortably and efficiently. We are creating an office environment that facilitates collaboration, as we value face-to-face communication as a way to promote “creation” and “transformation” by bringing out the best in our values.
