Today, we mark 150 years since the founding of the first bank that would become Mizuho Financial Group, one of the largest financial services firms in the world.

In this time, Mizuho has grown to a global community of 60,000 employees across 35 countries, with $2 trillion in assets. But while the value we provide may have changed, our underlying principles have not. 

We still strive to promote progress and prosperity around the world, partnering with our clients and communities as a catalyst for change. By embracing our principles and acting with integrity, passion, agility, creativity, and empathy, together we are charting a sustainable path forward, and ensuring that our clients and communities thrive for the next 150 years.
