The drama is an original story that focuses on a private banker, a "money professional" who advises the wealthy on how to manage and build their assets. This is a "delightful money suspense" drama in which Anno (played by Karasawa), a highly skilled private banker with overwhelming financial knowledge and a wide network of contacts, brilliantly solves various financial problems.

In the first episode, Anno becomes a private banker at the request of Tenmuji Takehiro (Hashizume Isao), the president of the Tenmuji Aina Group, which has assets of over 700 billion yen. At his first request, he acts to help Takehiro save his beloved dango shop from financial difficulties.
