Japan will establish subsidies for regional banks that shore up their core strength through mergers and integration as part of efforts to revive regional economies hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, a draft stimulus package seen by Reuters showed on Friday.

The draft stimulus package is expected to be finalised and approved by Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga’s cabinet on December 8.
