Among the conglomerates that have taken the opportunities is the Yuchengco-led Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC). The bank has recently formed partnerships with three Japanese banks: two from the Kansai Mirai Financial Group, Inc. under Resona Holdings Inc., namely the Osaka-based Kansai Urban Banking Corp. and the Kobe-based Minato Bank; and Shoko Chukin Bank, a Japanese government institution that supports small and midsized enterprises (SME).
