What ㈼ means
It can label an audit firm when used as an abbreviation. The enclosed 監 means supervising or inspecting; typography catalogues call the form 括弧付き監.
Unicode 1.0's block note traces the family to older Japanese and Taiwanese character sets (JIS 0208-1990, CNS 11643) and corporate registries—not to one inventor.
Formal Japanese shorthand for institutional labels; spell out the term in ordinary prose.
Don't confuse it with

1Why does ㈼ show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
