Fostering the Next Generation Human Resources

Nurturing the next generation is a challenge shared by all regional communities. Various money troubles involving youth have emerged amid the spread of credit cards and e-money. JAPAN POST BANK believes that our responsibility as a financial institution is to help improve financial literacy as a step toward solving these problems. We will contribute to the future of regional communities by helping to raise children through financial literacy education programs that harness our expertise as a financial institution.

Financial Education

The Japan Post Bank offers financial education to elementary, junior high, and high school students at schools and other locations. We use educational materials developed in-house to teach the importance and appropriate management of money, helping children develop a proper sense of money.

Piggy Bank Design Contest for children

Our children are the future leaders of society. The Japan Post Bank Piggy Bank Design Contest aims to encourage children to stretch their creative muscles and design piggy banks, generating greater interest in savings. Started in 1975 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the bank, this competition enjoys a long and storied history.
