Searching for Kobe Banks

Since I moved to Kobe, I thought about switching my personal bank to one with "Kobe" in its name. In the past, it was difficult to do business without a local bank due to the lack of ATMs and other services. However, that's no longer an issue. While my current online bank works perfectly fine, I thought it would be nice to use a bank named "Kobe" since I’m now living here.

However, after some research, I found that such banks no longer exist. There once was a bank called Kobe Bank, but it merged with Taiyo Bank to become Taiyo Kobe Bank, which later merged with Mitsui Bank to become Taiyo Kobe Mitsui Bank. It then changed its name to Sakura Bank and finally merged to become Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation.

There isn't a bank with "Kobe" in its name, but there is a credit union called "Kobe Shinkin Bank." Unfortunately, there isn't a branch nearby, so I might have to give up on this idea...
