Market Chatter: Mizuho, SMBC, MUFG Step Up Support for Japan Chip Sector

MT Newswires Live03-10

Japan's three largest banks are expanding lending and advisory services for the country's growing semiconductor industry by forming dedicated teams, Nikkei reported Tuesday.

Mizuho Bank (TYO:8411) will open a semiconductor desk in Fukuoka in April to support companies in Kyushu, where chip investment is rising with the presence of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TPE:2330), according to the report.

Meanwhile, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (TYO:8316) is forming a semiconductor-focused consortium with group companies to address industry issues, while MUFG Bank (TYO:8306) has created a team focused on AI-related semiconductors, the report said.

The moves reflect growing investment in Japan's chip sector, with the government targeting semiconductor sales of 40 trillion yen by 2040, according to the report.
