Chairman of Mizuho Bank China stands witness to China’s financial opening up

Regarding China’s further opening up in the financial industry, Toyoki regards it as a major topic. “This year marks the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening up and the 40th anniversary of the China-Japan Treaty of Peace and Friendship. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe also plans to visit China this October. Mizuho Bank hopes to make some contributions beyond the corporate framework. With regard to the Belt and Road Initiative advocated by China, we will actively help Chinese corporate clients to go abroad and support business cooperation between Japanese and Chinese companies. Personally, as vice chairman of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry in China, I will be more active in promoting Japan-China economic exchanges. I hope this year will be a significant year for both China and Japan.”
