Strengthening Workforces Through Better Benefits — Seminar with Sompo Japan DC Securities

With 50+ participants joining both onsite and online from across APAC, the session was highly engaging, and we are grateful for the strong feedback we received.
A strong workforce is at the heart of every organization's success. In today’s competitive market, attracting talent is no longer enough - companies must also retain their people with the right incentives and long-term benefits. In Japan, defined contribution (DC) pension schemes have become the gold standard for many foreign multinationals as they adapt to regulatory changes and enhance employee experience.
