Read it against [[financial-regulators/fsa-supervision-bureau|FSA 監督局]] for the supervision-side counterpart and [[financial-regulators/fsa-strategy-bureau|FSA 総合政策局]] for the cross-bureau strategy lane. For market-rule context, anchor through [[financial-regulators/jsda|JSDA]] and the [[financial-licenses/INDEX|legal / financial licenses]] index; for the BoJ-side prudential bureau contrast, see [[financial-regulators/boj-financial-system-dept|BoJ 金融機構局]]. ## TL;DR The Planning and Coordination Bureau (企画市場局) is the FSA's internal bureau in charge of financial-system planning, securities-market policy, FIEA / Banking Act / Insurance Business Act rule-making, listed-company governance and disclosure policy, and the coordination of advisory-council deliberations (Financial System Council, Sectional Committees) that feed into legislative and ordinance changes. It is the FSA's rule-making and market-policy bureau. For JapanFG, this bureau is the right anchor whenever a page needs to reference FSA rule-making, FIEA amendments, Stewardship Code / Corporate Governance Code revisions, disclosure-regulation updates, or securities-market structural-policy work. ## 1. Function / scope The FSA's English organization chart identifies the Planning and Coordination Bureau as the bureau responsible for: - Financial-system planning: drafting and proposing amendments to the Banking Act, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (FIEA), the Insurance Business Act, the Trust Business Act, the Payment Services Act, and the Money Lending Business Act. - Securities-market policy: market-structure, market-conduct, PTS regulation, exchange-oversight policy, off-exchange and OTC market rules, and crypto-asset / stablecoin policy at the legislative-design level (registration mechanics are administered through [[financial-regulators/fsa-supervision-bureau|監督局]] — see [[exchanges/fsa-vasp-registration-system|FSA VASP registration system]]). - Listed-company disclosure and governance: oversight of disclosure rules under FIEA, the Stewardship Code, and the Corporate Governance Code (the latter jointly with the Tokyo Stock Exchange). - Coordination of the Financial System Council (金融審議会) and its sectional committees / working groups, which are the formal advisory channel feeding into FSA-led legislation. - Accounting / audit policy coordination, in liaison with [[financial-regulators/cpaaob|CPAAOB]] and the Accounting Standards Board of Japan. The bureau is the rule-making centre of gravity inside the FSA. It does not issue business-improvement orders against named firms — that is the supervision bureau's role. ## 2. Counterparty / interaction Counterparty interaction is dominated by policy / drafting / standard-setting work rather than firm supervision: - **Diet and Cabinet Legislation Bureau**: legislative drafting and government-bill coordination for financial-sector laws. - **Industry associations and SROs**: [[financial-regulators/jsda|JSDA]] (securities dealers), the Japan Investment Advisers Association, the Investment Trusts Association, the Life Insurance Association, the General Insurance Association, and the Japan Bankers Association. - **Exchanges and market infrastructure**: Tokyo Stock Exchange / JPX, JSCC, JASDEC, the Tokyo Financial Exchange — for market-rule coordination and exchange-oversight policy. - **International standard-setters**: IOSCO on securities-market policy, IAIS on insurance, IFRS Foundation / ISSB on accounting / sustainability disclosure (work shared with [[financial-regulators/fsa-strategy-bureau|総合政策局]]). - **FSA internal**: cross-bureau working groups with 監督局 and 総合政策局, and policy hand-off when new legislation creates new supervisory perimeters (e.g. crypto-asset / stablecoin extensions of the Payment Services Act). ## 3. Why this page matters - It is the cleanest public anchor for "who drafts FSA rules" — needed any time a JapanFG page references an FIEA amendment, a disclosure-rule revision, or a Corporate Governance Code update. - It separates rule-making (this bureau) from supervision ([[financial-regulators/fsa-supervision-bureau|監督局]]) and from FSA strategy ([[financial-regulators/fsa-strategy-bureau|総合政策局]]) — three distinct lanes that JapanFG pages often need to disambiguate. - It gives the right home for Financial System Council deliberations and working-group reports that pre-date new legislation, so that pages do not over-attribute them to the supervision bureau. - It anchors the FSA-side of crypto / stablecoin legislative design, in clean contrast with the registration-side anchor at [[exchanges/fsa-vasp-registration-system|FSA VASP registration system]]. ## Related - [[financial-regulators/fsa-supervision-bureau|FSA 監督局 (Supervision Bureau)]] - [[financial-regulators/fsa-strategy-bureau|FSA 総合政策局 (Strategy Development and Management Bureau)]] - [[financial-regulators/fsa-inspection-bureau|FSA 検査局 (Inspection Bureau — historical)]] - [[financial-regulators/cpaaob|公認会計士・監査審査会 (CPAAOB)]] - [[financial-regulators/jsda|JSDA]] - [[financial-licenses/INDEX|legal / financial licenses]] - [[financial-licenses/securities-license-stack|Securities license stack]] - [[financial-licenses/insurance-license-and-solvency|Insurance license and solvency]] - [[banking/INDEX|Banking landscape]] - [[exchanges/fsa-vasp-registration-system|FSA VASP registration system]] ## Sources - FSA, "Organization Chart" (English) — https://www.fsa.go.jp/en/about/orgchart.html - FSA, "Annual Report" — https://www.fsa.go.jp/en/about/annual.html - FSA, "Policy" (English) — https://www.fsa.go.jp/en/policy/index.html - FSA, "Councils" (Financial System Council, etc.) — https://www.fsa.go.jp/en/refer/councils/index.html - FSA (Japanese), "Organization" — https://www.fsa.go.jp/common/about/sosiki/index.html --- > [!info] 校核状態 > confidence: **likely**.
