Yamanashi Central Bank, Inc.

Chuo Bank , Ltd. is a regional bank with its head office in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture. It is the only regional bank in Yamanashi Prefecture, and has stores in Tokyo and Kanagawa Prefecture.

overview

It is a regular bank established in 1941 (Showa 16), and has been using the name "Yamanashi Central Bank" from the beginning. There are only three banks nationwide that include the name "Central" in their bank names (Yamanashi Central Bank, Fukuoka Central Bank, and Shizuoka Central Bank). In addition, the Fukuoka Central Bank and Shizuoka Central Bank are the second regional banks that have been converted from mutual banks to regular banks, and the name "Central" was adopted to differentiate themselves from the local banks of the same name (Fukuoka Bank and Shizuoka Bank), which are the former names of Fukuoka Mutual Bank and Shizuoka Mutual Bank, while Yamanashi Central Bank has been operating as regular banks since its inception.

history

There were Yamanashi Bank, which was founded in 1882 (Meiji 15), and another Yamanashi Bank, which was founded in 1900 (Meiji 33), but both were closed or absorbed by other banks, and never existed at the same time as Yamanashi Central Bank.

On October 17th, 2018, a partnership agreement was concluded with Yokohama Bank and Shizuoka Bank to promote tourism around Mount Fuji. On October 29th, 2020 (Reiwa 2), we entered into a business partnership with Shizuoka Bank, including the joint venture between stores and administrative affairs.
