Terrace Toyocho Nextower

In today's world, it is increasingly important to promote business that reflects consideration for the environment. In the Mitsubishi Corporation, we are actively pursuing the development of eco-friendly housing in various ways, such as by utilizing Corporate Development funds to promote research on low-carbon housing.
These efforts have already begun to produce results, such as at Terrace Toyocho Nextower in Tokyo. The new high-rise condominium, which commenced sales last autumn, realizes a 27% reduction in CO₂ compared to emission standards used under a CASBEE* evaluation.
Specifically, our unit is seeking to promote eco-friendly development in three ways: (1) curbing CO₂ emissions through various means, such as the adoption of highly energy-efficient facilities; (2) increasing greenery and creating better living environments; and (3) minimizing waste by using recycled materials and utilizing water-saving equipment in order to conserve limited natural resources.
Mitsubishi Motor's new-generation electric vehicle, the i-MiEV, will also be used at Terrace Toyocho Nextower as part of a car sharing project. In this way, we are striving to promote innovative efforts in low-carbon housing through an approach that encompasses both soft and hard infrastructure development.

*CASBEE (Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency) is a tool for assessing the environmental performance of buildings.

In April 2009, Pentelia Diamond Capital Management Ltd., an insurance and investment manager, was established along with Pentelia Capital Management.
This joint venture with Pentelia, an influential player in the area of insurance-linked assets, which are expected to grow further in the future, enabled the first full-scale entry in the insurance-linked assets business by a Japanese company.

Mitsubishi Corporation(MC) and AEON Mall Co. have been jointly working on the redevelopment of a shopping center in Nagoya since November 2007, and the new shopping center, named Mozo Wondercity, opened on April 21, 2009. With leading Japanese retailer JUSCO as its anchor store, Mozo Wondercity is Nagoya's largest mall, boasting approximately 230 shops and upwards of 5,000 parking spaces. It aims to attract 17 million shoppers in its first year.
The former Diamond City Co. opened a shopping center called "Wondercity" in the same location in 1994, but plans to redevelop the facility and create a new "Wondercity" were drawn up in order to respond to the changing needs of the surrounding community. The project, which is MC's largest investment project to be executed as a securitized development*, allowed MC to fully demonstrate its far-reaching capabilities in project development and finance. The project's developers are eager to see the shopping center lay down roots and grow together with the local community. These sentiments are reflected in the mall's new logo, which features a baby plant, as well as in the name of the shopping center, with the word "mozo" describing the sound something makes when it starts to move or is stirred to life.
