What Zenkoku Hosho does

Japanese company providing rent guarantee services, acting as a guarantor for tenants who lack one.

Tenants pay an upfront guarantee fee and a renewal fee, and the company pays the landlord if rent goes unpaid, then chases the tenant to recover it, so it earns the fees minus the cost of unrecovered rent. Revenue grows with the number of guaranteed leases.

In one line: No direct US-listed analogue — a rent-guarantor insurance-like service.
