My Take
Koichi Miyata is the kind of figure who quietly shapes the world without ever needing a spotlight — a Tokushima-born kid who made it to the University of Tokyo and then carved out a career in banking and business during one of Japan's most turbulent economic eras. Born in 1953, he came of age right as Japan's postwar growth machine was hitting full throttle, and if you were sharp enough to survive the financial world across the bubble years, the crash, and the long plateau that followed, you had to be made of something serious. We'll probably never know the full weight of decisions a man in his position made, or how many livelihoods those calls touched downstream — that's just the nature of banking, enormous influence wrapped in institutional anonymity. He passed in October 2021, and honestly, people like him rarely get the send-off their real impact deserves.
