## 2. Operating model

Bank of China's Japan page states that the Tokyo representative office began in 1980 and the Tokyo branch opened in 1986. It describes services including deposits, loans, foreign exchange, trade settlement, fund settlement, and other banking services, and lists additional Japan branches such as Osaka, Yokohama, Nagoya, and Tokyo Otemachi.

This is one of the most important mainland China bank branches in Japan because of its scale, multi-branch footprint, and renminbi / Japan-China transaction role.

## 3. Why this page matters
