Mizuho Financial Group launches universal bank in Europe
Mizuho Bank Europe merged banking and securities services of two subsidiaries.
Mizuho Financial Group has merged its Netherlands and German subsidiaries to form Mizuho Bank Europe.
Mizuho Bank Europe integrates the banking services of the Amsterdam-based Mizuho Bank Europe N.V.— a subsidiary of Mizuho Bank— and Frankfurt-based Mizuho Securities Europe GmbH, which is a subsidiary of Mizuho Securities Co., Ltd.
It commenced operations under a universal bank structure on 7 April 2025, offering both banking and securities services.
The Japanese megabank said that it has reorganized its footprint in the EU into four offices in Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Madrid, and Paris. All transactions booked in the Brussels, Dusseldorf, Milan, Paris, and Vienna offices have been transferred to Mizuho Bank Europe offices in other locations.
