Kekst CNC has appointed Minako Otani as Co-Head Japan. In this new role, she leads the firm's Tokyo office alongside Jochen Legewie, Partner and Co-Head Japan, Chairperson Asia.
Minako joined Kekst CNC in 2010. This latest appointment comes as the firm expands its Japan leadership to meet growing client demands.
The agency noted that Japan is entering a new era of corporate transformation, where the market has emerged as one of the world’s most active takeover regions, signifying a growing confidence in its corporate and capital markets.
Jochen remarked, "Since moving to a larger office in 2024, our team has continuously grown in scale and capability. As Japan’s business landscape evolves, clients are increasingly seeking advisors who can bridge local and global perspectives, connecting capital markets, corporate strategy, and reputation. With Minako joining as Co-Head, we’re strengthening our leadership bench for the next phase of growth."
