Japanese listed companies have increased stock splits as the Tokyo Stock Exchange steps up efforts to make the market more accessible to retail investors. So far this fiscal year, 266 companies have approved stock splits, up 34% from a year earlier and the highest level since fiscal 2020, according to the exchange. The TSE announced guidelines in April urging listed companies to consider reducing the size of investment — the minimum amount that an investor needs to deploy — to ¥100,000 ($630) or lower, a level deemed affordable for main street. The guidelines fit with a government’s push to steer more savings to investments. Major companies that have announced stock splits in recent months include cable maker Fujikura Ltd. and Sanrio Co. , owner of the Hello Kitty franchise. The frequency of stock splits will go up as the minimum investment amount rises as share prices continue their upward trajectory, said Chizuru Morishita , a researcher at the NLI Research Institute. There’s still a gap between the minimum investment amount and what the retail investors can afford, she said. An analysis of 199 companies which split their stock in the fiscal year ending March showed that the median growth rate in the number of retail shareholders was 44.2%, with nearly 50 companies more than doubling their individual investor base, Tuesday’s release said. Retail shareholders often hold contrarian views on the market, which helps diversify investment views and stabilize markets, some analysts say. The TSE found that during sharp market declines in July 2024 and April 2025, companies with a higher proportion of retail investors tended to experience lower stock price volatility. The median minimum investment amount for listed companies is about ¥158,000 as of the end of February. That compares to ¥22,000 and ¥13,000 in the US and Germany respectively.
