The special crisis management (a decision for the DICJ to acquire the shares of a failed bank) specified in the Deposit Insurance Act may be applied, through the deliberation of the Council for Financial Crises chaired by the Prime Minister, as measures against financial crisis that could severely hinder the maintenance of the financial system in Japan or in the region where the insured financial institution conducts its business.
In such a case the DICJ, as designated by the Commissioner of the Financial Services Agency, can select and appoint directors, auditors, etc. of the relevant bank.
A decision to place the Ashikaga Bank under the special crisis management was made on November 29, 2003. On July 1, 2008, the special crisis management of the Ashikaga Bank came to an end with the DICJ transferring all the Ashikaga Bank shares it had held to the transferee.
