Bayview Asset Management (BVAM) refined its organization in April 2008 with the aim of stepping up from the emergence stage, which prioritized hiring employees with high potential and building its business foundation, to the next growth stage, which gives importance to nurturing each professional and integrating the organization.

The key point of this reorganization is a transfer of business execution function from each division headquarter overseeing some departments, which had been a legacy from BVAM's emergence, to the board of executive officers taking the central role. Under executive officers, all divisions are encouraged to share information and collaborate in providing top-tier and nimble investment services for the long term, while a flatter organization was realized with delegated responsibility and independence allowed to each division.

In April 2011, we started recruiting new graduates from university. This was aimed to balance the staff composition throughout the organization into the future, and we further made a long-term commitment to our investors.

To seek true quality as a boutique-style investment firm, BVAM is strongly determined to keep rendering its clients with superior products for active investment in Japanese and U.S. equities as well as currency, accompanied by unrivaled investment disclosures. BVAM now sets its goal to grow through quality rather than through expansion in assets.
