Chiba Kogyo Bank expands shareholder fixed deposit program

Chiba Kogyo Bank, Ltd. will offer an additional shareholder benefit fixed deposit program, effective October 15, 2025. This new semi-annual offering complements the existing annual program, aiming to enhance shareholder appeal. Eligible shareholders, holding 100 shares or more as of September 30, 2025, will qualify for the new benefit.

The semi-annual fixed deposit can be opened from December 8, 2025, to March 31, 2026, for a one-year term. It offers an interest rate of 0.5% above the posted rate, surpassing the 0.3% offered by the existing program. Deposit amounts range from 100,000 yen to 5,000,000 yen, and must be sourced from new funds.

Shareholders who have already opened a fixed deposit under the existing July program can utilize the December shareholder benefit coupon for additional deposits. Detailed information will be included in the "Semi-annual Business Report" dispatched in early December 2025, and also made available on the bank’s website.
