Realize Corporation’s SDGs
Since the founding of our group, Realize Corporation’s corporate slogan has been “The Future, Now.” Through our TRUCK FUND® and R.LEASE® initiatives, we strive to bring joy throughout Japan and to make the society of the future possible today.
We are devoted to these initiatives because they give new value to the resources and assets in Japanese society and create new businesses that are adapted for today’s world. Not only will these initiatives help enrich the Japanese economy and future*, they also embody the better, sustainable world depicted by the 17 goals and 169 targets outlined in the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).

<Examples of SDG Initiatives>
In 2019, we established the Realize Scholarship, a special scholarship awarded at the Nissan Automobile Technical College run by Nissan Motor Corporation and Nissan Gakuen. We support young adults pursuing their dream to become a mechanic. (Goal 4: Education)
We provide management support for transportation companies through our R.LEASE® consulting service, which leverages the TRUCK FUND® scheme, and contribute to the economic growth and job creation in the transportation sector. (Goal 8: Economic Growth and Employment)
Through the development and operation of next-generation financial products such as TRUCK FUND® and R.LEASE®, we provide new values and services that will help stabilize the logistics sector, which is a vital part of social infrastructure. (Goal 9: Infrastructure, Industrialization and Innovation)
In April 2020, we established the Bus Fund™, a lease-back agreement with the Kyoto City Traffic Bureau for city bus vehicles as a way to support public transportation, a vital lifeline for city residents. This initiative will help standardize the Kyoto City Traffic Bureau’s fiscal vehicle cost (procurement, upkeep, maintenance etc.). (Goal 11: Sustainable Cities)
Transportation companies that leverage R.LEASE® no longer need to make expensive capital investments and are able switch to high-mileage, low-emission vehicles. Our contribution and promotion of this initiative reduces the impact on the environment. (Goal 13: Climate Change)
Through our new businesses, TRUCK FUND® and R.LEASE®, we establish partnerships with investors, transportation companies and financial institutions throughout Japan. Together with these partners, we support the continuation and growth of businesses implemented by various companies. (Goal 17: Implementation Methods)
