TOKYO -- Mizuho Bank President Koji Fujiwara will leave his position as early as the end of this month to take responsibility for the company's recent widespread system glitches, Nikkei learned on Thursday.
Fujiwara, 59, will also not assume the chairmanship for which he was appointed earlier this year. Group CEO Tatsufumi Sakai, 61, will keep his job but may face a salary cut, the details of which Mizuho Financial Group is still working out.
