Dear Mr. Kuroyanagi:
We have reviewed your response letter dated October 19, 2006
and have the following comments. We welcome any questions you may
have about our comments or on any other aspect of our review.
Feel
free to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this
letter.
General
1. We refer you to your "Response to Comment No. 2," in which you
describe your trade finance transactions with entities in or
affiliated with Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Sudan and Syria. We note
your representation that it would be impractical and extremely
burdensome for you to provide specific details regarding those
transactions. To assist us in understanding the significance to
you
of the transactions, please tell us what percentage of your assets
as
of March 31, 2006, the total dollar amount of your risk exposure
in
connection with such transactions during the fiscal year ended on
that date represents. Alternatively, you may confirm to us, if
true,
that the total dollar amount of your risk exposure in connection
with
trade finance transactions related to the referenced countries
during
the fiscal year does not represent a greater percentage of your
total
assets at March 31, 2006, than does the dollar amount of loans
outstanding to borrowers in or affiliated with Iran and Cuba at
that
date.
2. If the total dollar amount of your risk exposure in
connection
with trade finance transactions with entities in or affiliated
with
Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Sudan and Syria during the fiscal year
represents a greater percentage of your total assets at March 31,
2006 than does the dollar amount of loans outstanding to borrowers
in
or affiliated with Iran and Cuba at that date, please advise us of
the percentage of your total assets at that date which your risk
exposure during the fiscal year in connection with each of the
five
countries represents.

tell us when you will provide us with a response. Please file

response letter on EDGAR.
Please understand that we may have additional comments after
