Yuji Sugimoto, head of Bain Capital Japan, said Kioxia may be one of Japan’s highest‑valued firms in the AI cycle, but Korean chip giants retain structural advantages. He cited Samsung and SK’s strong top‑down leadership and ownership structures, saying sustained, large-scale investment is essential in semiconductors and hard to deliver under typical Japanese governance.
