Mizuho Bank Europe N.V.

Mizuho Bank Europe N.V. is a Dutch-incorporated credit institution (naamloze vennootschap) headquartered in Amsterdam and wholly owned by Mizuho Bank, Ltd., a core banking subsidiary of Mizuho Financial Group. It is authorized and supervised by De Nederlandsche Bank and the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets and uses EU passporting to provide services across the European Economic Area, operating branches including Brussels, Madrid, Vienna, and Stockholm. The bank focuses on corporate and institutional clients rather than retail customers and offers wholesale products such as corporate lending, trade finance (letters of credit, guarantees, documentary collections), cash management and payments, transaction banking, and treasury and markets services covering foreign exchange and interest rate hedging. Activities include financing for general corporate purposes and structured or project-related transactions, delivered through a relationship-driven model aligned with cross-border supply chains between Europe and Asia. Payment services are provided under SEPA standards, and the institution follows EU prudential requirements under CRR/CRD, with annual reports and Pillar 3 disclosures made available in line with IFRS and regulatory obligations. The bank is subject to Dutch and EU frameworks for conduct, AML/CFT, and sanctions compliance. It does not position itself as a retail deposit taker; eligibility for the Dutch Deposit Guarantee Scheme depends on the nature of the client and product, with protection limited to qualifying deposits under statutory limits.
