Abstract: The environment surrounding the business of Japanese financial institutions remains severe due mainly to the prolonged weakness in the economy and the continuous downtrend in land prices. In addition, developments in stock prices including those of banks remain unstable. The Bank Examination and Surveillance Department of the Bank of Japan is making various efforts through on-site examinations and off-site monitoring to gain a thorough understanding of the business operations and management strategy of financial institutions that have current accounts at the Bank. Based on the information gathered, it has analyzed the developments in profits and losses of banks and the nonperforming-loan (NPL) problem, and produced a list of management tasks that the banking sector faces in a report titled Developments in Profits and Balance Sheets of Japanese Banks in Fiscal 2000 and Banks' Management Tasks released in summer 2001. In addition, it has published its view on financial institutions' risk management systems in other reports from time to time. This report outlines the current state of financial institutions' business and how financial institutions that have current accounts at the Bank including shinkin banks have addressed their management tasks.
