The prefecture is an important crossroads linking Tohoku to Tokyo, the nation’s capi- tal. In 1989, Sendai, the prefectural capital, became the 11th city in Japan specially designated by ordi- nance.

Total revenue for each set of banks has declined by a full 20% since 2011. European banks are in a multiyear downward spiral, evidenced by dramatic declines in market capitalization, the book value of loans and total assets, and the level of deposits. Japanese bank performance is stagnant compared to Europe and the U.S. Both Japanese and European banks are particularly challenged by persistently lower net interest margins compared to U.S. banks.The percentage of impaired, restructured or nonperforming loans soared for U.S. and European banks post-crisis, but barely rose in Japan.
