PROFILE |
 |
A company with the girth of a sumo wrestler, Sumitomo Group is one of Japan's oldest "keiretsu" (group of firms linked by cross-ownership). The group's heftiest members include Sumitomo Corporation, one of the world's leading trading companies and Sumitomo Life Insurance, the #3 mutual life insurance firm in the world. The group has been rocked by the Asian financial crisis, though Sumitomo Corporation is holding fast to its goal of investing in developing regions, particularly in Asia. Sumitomo Bank has merged with Mitsui's Sakura Bank to form Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), one of the world's largest banks.
