Parex Bank Japan representative office launches operations

Published: 18 November 2003 y., Tuesday
The Japanese market is interesting due to a number of reasons:
- A great concentration of private deposit savings;
- Extremely low rates. In effect, customers end up paying their Japanese banks for keeping their funds;
- Large Japanese businesses have shown interest in the Russian, Eastern European and Baltic markets;
- There are opportunities for partnership with the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) as well as other banks in Japan;
- Japan’s institutions are friendly and positive to foreign enterprises (Parex Bank for example) who show their interest in Japan;
- In recent years Japanese banking regulations have become more flexible, especially concerning foreign financial institutions. Parex Bank became a member of the Association of International Bankers of Japan.
As has been seen in various media, a number of Latvian entrepreneurs have already showed interest in possible business relations with partners in Japan. Parex Bank is prepared to assist entrepreneurs in trade with Japan.
