ZUU Co., Ltd.

ZUU Co., Ltd. is a Japanese fintech company headquartered in Aobadai, Meguro-ku, Tokyo. Founded in April 2013, it began by launching "ZUU online," a financial and economic media platform aimed at affluent individuals. The company has since expanded into consulting services, crowdfunding, and wealth management, and listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Mothers market in June 2018 (later transitioning to the Growth market in April 2022). ZUU's business spans several areas: operating the ZUU online media site, providing the "Onisoku PDCA System" consulting service, and running crowdfunding platforms through subsidiaries such as Unicorn (equity crowdfunding) and ZUU funding (loan-based crowdfunding). It also has an IFA (independent financial advisor) business and a wealth management subsidiary. The company established ZUU Singapore in 2016 to serve Southeast Asian markets. ZUU positions itself at the intersection of finance and IT, supporting executive-class asset management and asset advisors. Its corporate philosophy is to create a world where 9 billion people can challenge their dreams. The company has made several acquisitions and formed joint ventures, including a 2025 joint venture NET MONEY with FUNDiT and Macbee Planet, and the acquisition of Keizaikai in March 2025.
