AGF was one of the first companies in the world to recognize the importance and vast potential of the Japanese market.
AGF's strong ties with the Japanese community go back more than 30 years to when AGF offered the first Japanese equity fund available to Canadian investors in 1969. Soon after, AGF's Canadian Growth Equity fund - one of the oldest funds of its kind - was made available to Japanese investors.
In June 2000 we were the first Canadian mutual fund company to open a branch office in Tokyo. We felt that having a dedicated staff on the ground was the best way to ensure the highest quality products and services to the Japanese markets.
Our commitment has been recognized by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Tokyo and at the Canada-Japan Business Awards. With our product line and enhanced sales network in Japan, we are building on our success and strengthening our position in an increasingly competitive market.
AGF is successfully implementing new strategies in Canada and abroad to lay the foundation for our future in Japan.
