As a result, it expects to record a loss of approximately 3 billion yen in securities-related profit and loss for Q4 FY2026 (January 1 to March 31, 2026). The bank has no plans to change its future securities investment policy and aims to establish a stable earnings structure centered on yen-denominated bonds.
