The surveyor went to the front door and found beside the door a signage on which existed the words “Shinkin Central Bank”. The surveyor entered the building and found a floor directory in the lobby but didn’t find any information about Skam. In order to ensure the accuracy of the inspection, the surveyor inquired the safe guard on duty. The safe guard told the surveyor Skam didn’t have an office in this building.
