Aozora (which means blue sky in Japanese) was the second Japanese credit bank nationalized in the wake of Asia's financial crisis after the Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan (now Shinsei Bank). Bad loans and Japan's "Big Bang" financial deregulation added to its troubles. Now a full-service commercial bank, Aozora has some 20 branches in Japan and three offices overseas. In addition to insurance and trust services, Aozora Bank provides a wide range of business loans for medium and large corporations, asset management, investment advisory services and securitization. Aozora and Shinsei called off their plans to merge in 2010.
