ゆーけーのお仕事日記

From my university age, I have been interested in Social Finance, especially Social Responsible Investment (SRI) because I have expected investment industry to improve and stimulate Cooprate Social Reponsibility (CSR) and thought that the amount of investment in Japan is enough to improve it.

Recently, Japanese Government and finance industry have insisted that citizens should take care of their asset management and have more various finance instrument namely stocks, bonds, investment trust etc because we will not be able to ensure enough money to secure our life after retirement under such low interest rate condition.

With this trend, more people have interest about investment, so I think that investment will have more possibility to improve activities by companies and SRI will be more important for sustainable economy and society.

Lately, I noticed that Social Investment Forum Japan (SIF-Japan) , one of the most famous organizations commiting SRI, will hold studying session about SRI, I invited my colleagues to attend the event.

In the event, current SRI of British style will be introduced, Because United Kingdom has long history to manage SRI and I feel disappointed Japanese SRI and its condition, I have much interest of the topic.

The session will be held on 27,January.

I am looking forward attending it because Mr. Kanai belonging to Sumitomo Trust Bank will take part in it. He is an authority of CSR and SRI and I have read some books written by him from the time when I was facinated with CSR and SRI.

If possible, I shall try to talk with him after the session.

I must study English and prepare for IELTS on 22 and 23 January but shall review his books by the event.

In this holiday, I had backed my hometown and met my parents.

At that time, my mother gave me a bag. On the surface, some well-known designs were printed. It is a bag titled " Louis Vuitton".

At first, I hesitated to accept the offer from her because it was very expensive even though it needed to be repaired. But she told me that I would need some prestageous accesory when I would travel or meet some important persons and so on. I understood her and I acquired the bag.

Accordingly, I went to a Louis Vuitton store in Mitsukoshi at Nihombashi after my work and ordered the staff to repair it.

The leather linking the bag itself and zippers is teared. The staff told me that I needed 11,500 yen to repair the part and I accept the condition.

The bag will return to me one month later. I am very looking forward using it.

I should not be so choosy about brand that I lose my adquate value sence but I also think that sophisticated goods make us better and more confident.

Therefore, I wii consider about my belongings to be more confident and to be recognized better by others(coworkers, customers, friends and family members etc).

Happy New Year!!ヾ(＠°▽°＠)ﾉ

I am very pleasure to celebrate this new year with you.

Reminding the last year of 2010, many things come to my mind.

I started some things including preparing for application to MBA courses such as IELTS (I got only OA6.0・・・).

In addition, I obtained new acquaintances as cohorts trying to apply for MBA through internet.

I thank some aggressive friends for planing the closing year party with MBA challenging cohorts.

I also appriciate internet instruments including Twitter,Facebook and blogs to bind us.

Coming fall, I shall apply to some MBA courses so I need to obtain enough score of IELTS and GMAT to apply the business schools which I want to enroll.

For the goal. I shall study English more intensively than 2010 and control my time and schedule well.

In January, I will take (4th) IELTS and target OA 7.0.

I am not good at listening and speaking sections, so I must consider to improve these skills.

It will be very difficult for me to enhance the skills but I believe that I can overcome and achieve the objective score.

To my short-term goal, there are many hardles and big stonewalls but I expect myself to write "I could overcome all of my hardles" on the same day in the next year with good status(if possible, I want to hold some offers).

Dear readers and folllowers, I ask all of you to get along with me to the future.

Thank you!!
