Factum Launches 24/7 Free Financial Consultation Hotline for SMEs Affected by the Kumamoto Earthquake
Factum Establishes Emergency Free Financial Consultation Hotline for Businesses Affected by the 2026 Kumamoto Earthquake
Factum Inc., a Kumamoto-based company supporting the financial and cash flow improvement of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and sole proprietors (Representative Director: Takuya Yanagawa), has launched the "Emergency Financial & Bridge Loan Special Free Consultation Hotline" for business owners whose operations have been impacted by the 2026 Kumamoto Earthquake. The hotline provides free, 24/7/365 advice on securing immediate funds and improving cash flow.
Background and Purpose of the Consultation Hotline
Immediately following a disaster, unexpected expenditures for recovery coincide with drops in revenue, significantly increasing the risk of sudden cash shortages. While public subsidies and loans can take several months to disburse, securing "bridge financing" during this interim period is a critical challenge for business continuity. Utilizing its expertise in professional financial consulting, Factum decided to provide this emergency support to help local business owners find a clear path to recovery as quickly as possible.
Support Services Provided
This hotline accepts specialized consultations via official LINE, offering the following services:
- Development of financial strategies to secure "bridge funds" for recovery
- Cash flow countermeasures until public support funds are disbursed
- Managing communications with business partners regarding payment delays and restructuring financial plans
- Security and risk management consultations to prevent fraud and predatory practices exploiting the disaster
Future Initiatives
As a local Kumamoto company, Factum remains closely by the side of affected business owners and will do its utmost to support the business continuity of the regional economy through appropriate financial advice. Consultations are accepted via official LINE, and inquiries are welcome even from stages where the current financial situation has not yet been fully organized.
