日本銀行は2026年6月および9月に政策金利を引き上げ、銀行の貸出金利上昇に寄与した。
3メガバンクグループは13日、2026年9月中間決算を発表した。最終的なもうけを示す純利益は3社とも過去最高で、合計で前年比21.1%増の3兆5305億円だった。日本銀行の利上げや取引先の旺盛な資金ニーズに支えられた。一方で、激化する預金集めでは明暗が分かれた。
「心強く受け止めている」。中間決算で初めて純利益が1兆円を超えた三井住友フィナンシャルグループ(FG)の中島達社長は、13日の決算会見で手応えを語った。最高益はこれで5年連続だ。
最大手の三菱UFJFGは4年連続、みずほFGは3年連続で最高益だった。3社とも通期の純利益予想を5月時点から1千億~3千億円引き上げ、三菱UFJFGは過去最高の2兆8千億円と見込む。
業績を支えるのは日銀の利上げだ。日銀は6、9月に政策金利を計0.5%幅引き上げており、連動して3社傘下の中核銀行で貸出金利が上昇。銀行の収益源となる預金金利と貸出金利の差(利ざや)が拡大した。
利上げに伴う貸出金利の上昇は、企業の資金需要を冷やす可能性がある。だが3社トップは「運転資金やM&A(企業合併・買収)関連、新しい設備投資で国内の法人貸し出しは非常に好調」(木原正裕みずほFG社長)とあくまで強気だ。
