	Modern Japan - Japan Inc. - Companies (5)
		After acquiring Asahi Bank in 2002, the group was renamed Resona Holdings, Inc., "resona" being the Japanese for "ideal".
		The bank announced plans to merge with Sumitomo Bank in 2001 to form Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp, now Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, the third-largest bank in the world.
		It was created at a time when many Japanese banks were undergoing radical changes as a result of a 10-year slump in the economy and a seeming inability to resolve huge bad debts.

	Bank_Merger
		The news Thursday that Sumitomo Bank, widely regarded as one of Japan's stronger banks, and Sakura Bank, one of the weaker of the big banks, are forming an alliance that will lead to a merger in two years came just a week after the Asahi Bank and the Tokai Bank accelerated plans to combine.
		Banking industry analysts said that a combined Sumitomo-Sakura would be a strong force in Japanese retail banking and much better equipped to invest in information-technology to reduce costs and provide online banking and trading services.
		Not only does that signal that the far-reaching overhaul of the banking system that the government promised when it plowed $7.5 trillion yen in public money into the major banks is occurring, it also suggests more wide-reaching reorganization is ahead for the corporations that are their clients.

		The merger announced on March 7 of Deutsche Bank AG and Dresdner Bank AG, Germany's largest and third-largest banks, respectively, to form the biggest financial institution in the world is the German response to increasingly tough competition for domination of the world financial markets.
		This is why the spin-off of branch-based retail banking to Bank 24, which is scheduled to be floated on the stock market in three years, is one of the main elements of the merger deal.
		This is why Breuer sees his bank's merger with Dresdner Bank as being merely "a first step in the direction of greater competitiveness and further expansion" in order to attain the required magnitude for planned acquisitions in the American investment banking sector.
