Foreign bank branches in Japan registry index

Wiki route

This entry sits under foreign-financial-institutions INDEX. Read it against Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Tokyo Branch for peer / contrast context and banking index for the broader system / regulatory boundary.

Overview

This registry index captures all 57 foreign bank branches listed in the FSA bank-license workbook as of 2026-05-13. It is the control surface for Batch G: all 57 rows now have standalone or umbrella wiki routes after the 2026-05-22 P4 closure of the remaining Taiwan, Pakistan, and UBAF registry-only rows.

Do not create long-tail foreign-bank branch pages one by one from this table by default. Use standalone pages for material Japan corridor banks, market-infrastructure-adjacent banks, or strategically important cross-border banking corridors.

Registry rows

Standalone-page policy

Standalone pages are appropriate when a branch has one of the following:

• high Japan-market materiality or G-SIB / large-bank relevance;
• clear Japan corridor significance, such as Korea, Taiwan, mainland China, or ASEAN corporate banking;
• market-infrastructure, custody, settlement, or securities-services relevance;
• public strategic disclosure that supports analysis beyond the FSA row.

The 2026-05-22 P2 promotion moved Euroclear, Clearstream, Bank of Communications, Bangkok Bank, State Bank of India, Bank of India, and ANZ to standalone routes because they carry ICSD, collateral, China, ASEAN, India, and Australia-New Zealand corridor relevance.

The 2026-05-22 P3 promotion moved Commonwealth Bank, National Australia Bank, Bank Negara Indonesia, Philippine National Bank, Metrobank, Banco do Brasil, First Commercial Bank, and Taipei Fubon Bank to standalone routes because they carry Australia, Indonesia, Philippines, Brazil, and Taiwan corridor relevance beyond raw registry presence.

The 2026-05-22 P4 closure moved Chang Hwa Bank, Taishin Bank, Taiwan Business Bank, Taiwan Cooperative Bank, National Bank of Pakistan, and UBAF to standalone routes. This closes the previous 6 registry-only rows while keeping each page concise and branch / corridor focused.

No registry-only rows remain as of this pass. Future changes should follow FSA list changes or a new strategic research question, not raw page-count completion.
