Looking to acquire a big bank in Indonesia

Japan’s biggest lender is considering acquiring a bank in Indonesia, the Philippines or India that has expertise in consumer banking, said Go Watanabe, chief executive officer (CEO) of the main lending unit’s Asia-Oceania arm.

“We’re looking for a bank that is very strong in both corporate and retail consumer finance” akin to Bangkok-based Bank of Ayudhya Pcl, Watanabe, 56, said in an interview on Monday in Singapore. The company ideally wants a majority stake in a “relatively big-sized bank,” he said.
