Detailed SWOT Analysis of Softbank Group

Strength

1. Strong brand recognition leverage: Softbank is a major telecom player and internet service provider in Japan. With the aim of promoting Industrial Revolution for contributing to the well-being of the society, they expanded their operations in Defense and Technology Services which created the overall brand of the company worldwide. This brand recognition helps the company to leverage for investment in other sectors like Investment fund, Robotics, Energy and Power sector, IT, online games and Sports too, having its own professional Baseball Team. With IOT, Big Data and AI capturing the market by storm, Softbank is directing its resources to this industry by investing in various start-ups and gaining stake of other major public and private companies like Flipkart, PayTm and OYO Rooms. This strong brand recognition helps Softbank to charge a premium as compared to its competitors.

2. Wide Customer Base: Since its inception in 1984, Softbank works on its corporate philosophy of “Information Revolution — Happiness for everyone,” as an invariable principle. This built a strong trust relationship resulting in a wide customer base. Softbank was the first private telecom company in Japan which revolutionized the telecom and mobile services industry. There was a steady increase of around 1.38 million subscribers for Softbank’s three smartphone brands, SoftBank and Y! mobile and LINE MOBILE. Innovation lies at the heart of all Softbank’s businesses. In partnership with PayTm, an India-based e-commerce payment system and digital wallet company, Softbank has introduced PayPay, a smartphone payment service business which will attract more customer base in this smartphone driven market. This swelling customer base is due to high customer satisfaction, not only for its qualitative and trustable services but also for its CSR initiatives like Game de manaberu shuwa jiten, an application developed for easy communication by children with disabilities which can be used via mobile phones.
