SoftBank's Masayoshi Son proposed the establishment of a US-Japan Sovereign Wealth Fund, with an initial capital of $300 billion.

BlockBeats News, May 25th. According to the Financial Times, three sources familiar with the matter revealed that SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son recently put forward the concept of establishing a US-Japan joint sovereign wealth fund aimed at making large-scale investments in the US technology and infrastructure sectors. The proposal has been discussed at the highest political levels of both countries and may serve as a model for other countries to deepen investment cooperation with the United States.

Under the proposed structure, the US Department of the Treasury and the Japanese Ministry of Finance would act as the fund's joint owners and operators, each holding a significant stake, subsequently opening up to other limited partners, and potentially allowing the general public in the US and Japan to subscribe for shares.

Sources indicated that to achieve the investment goals, the fund's size would need to reach a "significant" level — with initial capital potentially being $300 billion, using high leverage thereafter.
