日本已經開始郵政系統私營化，產生世界最大的商業銀行，試圖重新改照國家的銀行部門。
日本郵政制度，星期一分開成四家公司，分別是銀行、保險、郵遞以及郵局管理業務。這些公司將到2017年將變成獨立，並且出現在証券交易所上。
銀行部門有4億個賬戶和價值為3萬億美元的資產 – 比世界上其他的銀行還多。
政府這項改革將會增加日本金融服務的競爭力。

原有的日本郵政系統被劃分為四個企業，分別往銀行業務、保險事務、郵件寄送管理及郵局經營四個方向運作。這些企業將在2017年完全獨立，且在證券交易所擁有各自的股權。該銀行單位擁有四億個帳戶及三百兆日圓的資產 － 超過世界各國間任何一個銀行企業。

To Angel:
The following passage seems not quite right:
"日本郵政制度，星期一分開成四家公司，分別是銀行、保險、郵遞以及郵局管理業務。這些公司將到2017年將變成獨立，並且出現在証券交易所上。"
最好譯成：
自下週一起，日本國家郵政局將被區分成四個民營公司，繼續經營銀行、保險、郵務等業務，並管理各地郵局。這四個民營公司將在2017年前各自獨立，並上市股票。
To Vivian:
I don't think the following translation of yours is good and correct:
"原有的日本郵政系統被劃分為四個企業，分別往銀行業務、保險事務、郵件寄送管理及郵局經營四個方向運作。這些企業將在2017年完全獨立，且在證券交易所擁有各自的股權。該銀行單位擁有四億個帳戶及三百兆日圓的資產 － 超過世界各國間任何一個銀行企業。"
To Vivian:
"The banking unit has 400 million accounts and three trillion dollars in assets - more than any other bank in the world."
可譯成：
日本郵局的銀行部門擁有四百萬個存戶(帳戶)以及三兆美元資產，堪稱世界最大的銀行。(其餘請參閱我對Angel的意見)
To Sandy:
I don't think the following is good:
"日本郵政開始把星期一的工作劃分給四個公司分別處理銀行業務，保險運作，郵件傳遞，郵政業務. "
