Our parent company—Mizuho Financial Group—came together in late 2002, merging three of the largest banks in Japan. With our backing as a financial powerhouse in Asia and our growing presence across the Americas, we’re able to meet local market needs with a combination of truly customized care and $1.8 trillion in assets (as of March 31, 2016). Today, as part of one of the largest financial institu
tions in the world, Mizuho Americas leans on that Japanese heritage and diligence that saw us through the past years of financial turmoil. We honor our namesake “Mizuho” meaning “golden ears of rice”—a poetic term for Japan itself—and at the same time, embrace our local markets’ taste for success and a flair for innovation. At Mizuho Americas, we help our clients find the flexibility to meet its tide and the stability to withstand the shifts. We are the financial institution with a uniquely hybrid nature that gives us the broader perspective and sharper sightline that powers our clients ahead:
• Cultural and financial footholds in nearly 40 countries across the globe
• Considered diligence with the instinctual decisiveness of the best local talent
• The quick pivot of a fresh player, with the solidness, capital and chops to lead
• A commitment to long-term client growth with laser focus on immediate success
