SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under 04684034, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 3 March 2003 and lists its registered address as London, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 6 October 2026.

The Director of SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC currently on record is Sophie O'connor; five officers are currently on record for SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC, filed with Companies House.

The register reports 57 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC sits 2 levels below its ultimate parent, SUMITOMO MITSUI FINANCIAL GROUP, INC., registered in Japan. 8 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 1 jurisdiction. Immediately above SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC is SUMITOMO MITSUI BANKING CORPORATION, holding 100% as filed in SMBC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC's own shareholder record with Companies House. SUMITOMO MITSUI FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. sits further up the chain, a link derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions rather than stated in a single document. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 8 subsidiaries span United Kingdom jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear.
