In a bid to aid Japanese semiconductor manufacturer Rapidus in achieving large-scale production of 2nm chips in the latter half of 2027, Japan's three leading financial institutions—Mitsubishi UFJ Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, and Mizuho Bank—are set to offer financial support of up to 2 trillion yen (equivalent to roughly US$12.846 billion). This strategic move is designed to ensure the availability of essential funds for mass production and to maintain a steady flow of financial resources.
