Overview of Japanese Banks: Observations from Financial Statements for Fiscal 2003

Bank of Japan

No 2004-07-23, Bank of Japan Research Papers from Bank of Japan

Abstract: In fiscal 2003 (April 2003-March 2004), approximately 90 percent of Japanese banks posted positive net income, due to a decline in losses from the disposal of nonperforming loans (NPLs), i.e., credit costs, and to an improvement in stock-related gains/losses. The aggregate figures for both major banks and regional banks, however, continued to record net losses as a result of substantial disposals of NPLs at some specific banks.
