Development Bank of Japan Inc. is a Tokyo-based financial services firm that focuses on mobilizing long-term capital for business needs. Created in 2008 as the successor to the Development Bank of Japan, its purpose is defined by the DBJ Law to sustain investment and financing functions for long-term funds while preserving management autonomy with the goal of eventual privatization. The bank conducts activities including loans, guarantees, and equity investments in projects and entities that require long-term funding and meet viability criteria. 

Its target customers are projects and entities seeking long-term funds, for whom it assesses financial viability and alignment with relevant criteria. DBJ operates within the financial services sector and positions itself as a transitional institution aimed at ensuring a stable supply of long-term funds and advancing financial sophistication, alongside a role in supporting privatization. In June 2026, DBJ announced a collaboration with NTT Group to develop AI-focused initiatives linked to the IOWN ecosystem.
