Activist Commentary: Oasis Management is a global hedge fund management firm headquartered in Hong Kong with additional offices in Tokyo and Austin, Texas, as well as the Cayman Islands.
Kobayashi Pharmaceutical is a Japan-based pharmaceuticals and consumer products company.
It would imbue the company with a sense of urgency to improve operational performance, corporate governance and shareholder value maximization.

The firm is a top-tier Japan shareholder activist and if anyone can get board seats in Japan, it is Oasis.
