The purpose of this research is to reveal policy of women’s activity promotion in 6 regional banks in Tohoku district (northeast) in Japan which are financial institutions taking the leadership in regional industry, and to grasp the current situation of results and to review their issues. Due to progressing of low birthrate and longevity, "20-39-year-old female population" is decreasing significantly in this district. Some area has been enormous damaged by the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred in March 2011. In the environment of such present condition, we have researched gender equality, expansion of women’s decision making, and support for promotion of employee of women in those banks through interviews and officially announced materials. The research revealed various attempts such as career support of women in those banks, or business support of local women by forming project teams. The research has also revealed that there are differences in degree of interest among the banks. Some banks “offer women the same employment system as men”, and some banks “positively utilize women’s performance”. But we find the problem about the shortage of women’s human resources in those banks, so we think it is necessary to continue the attempt to consciously expand women’s occupational activity fields for the formation of various models that assume a long-term employment of women.
