How much was it that I had in my safe deposit box? Let me think awhile……

I guess she didn't buy the US dollar? LOL. Or many other major currencies, for that matter. Sounds like she was a terrible investor.
I hope there are charges for that as well. I hate it when white collar criminals get off easily.

No key control, access control and no audits. The bank didn't know until a customer complaint was filed. Hoo boy, close your accounts now.

Japan safe deposit boxes are not safe!

Boxes should require two keys. One for the bank and the other for the customer.

From what I know in some countries, it requires two keys from two different people to have access to the safe deposit area and the boxes.
This bank must have old boxes with just one key.

"46 years old, working at the bank for more than 25 years and held various managerial positions." Somehow the numbers don't add up, either she graduated early (which was close to impossible in Japan 25 years ago), or she joined the bank without graduating from college, which I highly doubt.
