Press Conference By SUZUKI Shunichi, Japan's Minister Of Finance And Minister Of State For Financial Services - Mizuho Bank

Date 14/01/2022

[Questions and answers:]

Q.

With regard to the business improvement order issued against Mizuho Bank last week, if the root causes of the bank's recent system failures also apply to its system failures in 2002 and 2011, does this mean that there may be problems or points for reconsideration in the supervision by the FSA? In particular, Mizuho Bank significantly reduced the number of personnel of the system division and appointed a person without expertise as the top of the system division. The FSA should have checked these facts in light of the Supervisory Guidelines and have urged the bank to take measures for improvements. The FSA itself should have the stance to say what it needs to say, I think. What is your thought?
