Strengths of SBI Shinsei Bank: Solid foundation developed from the time of the former Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan

Our M&A Advisory Team was created in 1985 as a section specializing in M&A operations within the former Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan. Since then, the M&A Advisory Team has been accumulating know-how over the years and created an extensive customer base consisting of business corporations and financial institutions. We also have a strong and wide-ranging network of banking relationship managers in our head office and branches in major cities in Japan, as well as lawyers, accountants, and other outside specialists. Utilizing these assets, we flexibly respond to the diverse M&A needs of our customers, regardless of their industries and geographical areas.
