SERVICES

WHO WE ARE

Skylands Global LLC is an English-Japanese bi-lingual consulting agency, specializing in business services for Japan & US market entry, regulatory compliance, capital provider/investor relations (IR), and business development. Our clients are global companies including investment management and financial services firms.

Skylands does not just advise; instead, we become part of your team helping you execute your business plan. We bring our cross-border and on-the-ground capabilities along with specialized credentials such as the national license in administrative and legal documentation in Japan.*

Unlike the U.S., businesses in Japan can reserve lawyers for legal advice while relying on alternative professional services. Examples include administrative and legal documentation/filings for licensing, registration, and product certification. When a foreign business is required to have an on-the-ground, Japanese-speaking representative for compliance, retaining a law firm or accounting house as your day-to-day registered representative can be cost prohibitive and is therefore unsuitable.

Skylands is the perfect alternative as your local business partner. The result you can expect is our trusted professional service.

*Our services do not constitute any regulated services such as legal, tax, or investment advice.
