The Norinchukin Bank is one of the largest institutional lenders in Japan, specializing in loans to Japanese agricultural, fishery, and forestry cooperatives. Norinchukin acts as a de facto central bank for 1,300 farm banks nationwide. Most of the bank's deposits come from agricultural and fishery cooperatives. Through foreign offices in Beijing, London, New York, and Singapore the bank also serves large institutions such as central banks and foreign governments. Formed in 1923 as a quasi-governmental institution, Norinchukin is now private but retains close ties to the government. The bank controls Norinchukin Asset Management, which provides 401(k)-style pension plans.
