Description détaillée Mizuho Financial Group est un grand conglomérat de services financiers japonais offrant des services bancaires commerciaux et de détail, des services de valeurs mobilières et de gestion d'actifs.

Un examen approfondi de l'obligation émise par Mizuho Financial Group, l'une des trois "mégabanques" japonaises, révèle un instrument financier pertinent pour les portefeuilles d'investissement. Mizuho Financial Group se positionne comme un acteur financier mondial de premier plan, offrant une gamme étendue de services bancaires, de fiducie, de valeurs mobilières et de gestion d'actifs à une clientèle diversifiée allant des particuliers aux grandes entreprises multinationales, avec une solide présence sur les marchés internationaux et une capitalisation boursière qui en fait un émetteur de référence dans le secteur financier asiatique et mondial. L'instrument en question est une obligation de type conventionnel, identifiée par le code ISIN XS1801905628, émise depuis le Japon et libellée en euros (EUR), une caractéristique notable pour un émetteur japonais, offrant ainsi une opportunité d'investissement direct en devise européenne pour les investisseurs de la zone euro. Son prix actuel sur le marché secondaire s'établit à 97.21% de sa valeur nominale, ce qui indique qu'elle se négocie avec une décote, potentiellement attrayante pour les investisseurs cherchant un gain en capital à l'échéance en plus des revenus d'intérêts. Le taux d'intérêt nominal (coupon) est fixé à 1.598%, avec une fréquence de paiement annuelle. La maturité de cette obligation est précisément fixée au 9 avril 2028, offrant une durée de vie résiduelle de plus de quatre ans pour les portefeuilles à moyen terme. L'émission totale représente un volume substantiel de 500 000 000 EUR, assurant généralement une bonne liquidité sur le marché secondaire. Cependant, la taille minimale à l'achat, fixée à 100 000 EUR, oriente cet investissement vers une clientèle institutionnelle ou des investisseurs avertis. Cette obligation représente donc une proposition intéressante pour les investisseurs cherchant à diversifier leur portefeuille avec une exposition à un émetteur financier majeur du Japon, via un instrument libellé en euros.








FINAL TERMS OF THE NOTES
Final Terms dated 4 April 2018
Mizuho Financial Group, Inc.
Issue of 500,000,000 1.598 per cent. Senior Notes due 2028 (the "Notes")

under the U.S.$30,000,000,000

This document constitutes the Final Terms relating to the issue of Notes described herein. Terms used
herein shall be deemed to be defined as such for the purposes of the Conditions set forth in the Base Prospectus
dated 31 August 2017 as supplemented by the supplemental Base Prospectus dated 3 April 2018 (the "Base
Prospectus"). These Final Terms contain the final terms of the Notes and are supplemental to and must be read
in conjunction with the Base Prospectus.
In connection with this issue, Mizuho International plc (the "Stabilising Manager") or any person acting
for the Stabilising Manager may over-allot or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of
the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period. However, there may
be no obligation on the Stabilising Manager or any agent of the Stabilising Manager to do this. Such stabilising,
if commenced, may be discontinued at any time and must be brought to an end after a limited time.
Save as disclosed herein or in the Base Prospectus, there has been no significant change in the financial
or trading position of the Issuer, or the Issuer and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole, since 31
March 2017 and there has been no material adverse change in the financial position or prospects of the Issuer,

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS ­ The Notes are not intended to be
offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to
any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a
person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive
2014/65/EU ("MiFID II"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC, where that customer
would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) any
person who is not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended). Consequently, no key
information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or
selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and
therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA
may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
MiFID II product governance / Professional investors and ECPs only target market ­ Solely for
the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the
Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and
professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes to
eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or
recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the manufacturers' target market
assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market
assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market assessment)
and determining appropriate distribution channels.
