Shuya’s career trajectory in treasury at automotive multinationals in the Asia Pacific region is a reflection of the evolution of treasury from operational excellence to strategic leadership at group level. He currently serves as Head of Group Treasury at ARCHION Corporation, a holding company formed from the integration of MFTBC and Hino Motor, where he oversaw regional liquidity management, cash visibility, pooling structures and treasury infrastructure across diverse markets.

His career progression illustrates a steady expansion in scope and influence – from Japan to APAC and ultimately to group treasury leadership. Alongside this geographic growth has been a shift from executional roles into strategic delivery, where he has shaped treasury frameworks, strengthened banking relationships and driven regional harmonisation.

In his APAC remit, Shuya delivered tangible improvements across core treasury disciplines. He enhanced cash forecasting visibility, standardised treasury operating models across the region and modernised cash management structures to support a more integrated and resilient platform. His leadership also extended to payment automation and strengthening relationships with major Japanese banking institutions, positioning treasury as both a strategic partner and a driver of efficiency.

Beyond systems and processes, Shuya has been a catalyst for organisational change. He has championed people development as a “digital catalyst”, equipping teams with the mindset and tools needed to navigate an increasingly technology-driven treasury environment. His approach reflects a broader shift towards treasury functions that are not only efficient, but also agile and forward-looking.

Crucially, Shuya’s impact extends beyond his organisation to the wider financial ecosystem in Japan. He is a vocal advocate for raising the visibility and strategic importance of treasury within the country, at a time when Japan is gaining renewed global attention as a financial and investment hub. His work underscores the need to develop internationally experienced Japanese talent capable of leading this transition.

Shuya brings together the best of Eastern and Western treasury practices – a combination that is increasingly essential in a globalised financial landscape. Through both his professional work and personal advocacy, he champions allyship and actively supports efforts to improve diversity, equity and inclusion within the workplace.

As Japan strengthens its position on the global financial stage, leaders like Shuya Komiyama are playing a critical role in redefining what modern treasury leadership looks like – international in outlook, progressive in mindset and committed to building more inclusive, future-ready organisations.
