Aozora Bank, Ltd. is a Japanese financial institution headquartered in Tokyo. The bank provides banking and financial services to individual, corporate, institutional, and public-sector customers, with activities spanning deposits, lending, payments, foreign exchange, and other conventional banking services.

The bank traces its origins to Nippon Bond and Credit Bank, which was established in 1957.
