Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc.
One of Japan's largest financial groups, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group (SMBC Group) runs banking, credit cards, brokerage, and leasing through subsidiaries like Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and SMBC Nikko Securities. Its roots stretch back some four centuries: the group was formed in 2001–2002 when Sumitomo Bank merged with Sakura Bank, the successor to Mitsui Bank, Japan's first private bank (founded 1876). Fun fact: the Sumitomo side traces to a 1590 copper business whose miners even planted forests to heal the land around their mine.
