PROFILE |
 |
Aozora Bank (formerly Nippon Credit Bank) was the second Japanese credit bank nationalized in the wake of Asia's financial crisis. The Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan (now Shinsei Bank) fell first and was sold by the government to a US investor group. Bad loans and Japan's "Big Bang" financial deregulation added to the bank's troubles. Traditionally a lender to small and midsized businesses, before the takeover it had started closing overseas branches and expanding its financial services. A consortium led by Japan's SOFTBANK took over Aozora Bank after finally reaching an agreement with the government.
