M&A and globalization makes it inevitable. Toshio will remember the Mizuho April Fool's Day fiasco (a couple of large banks merged, and when they reopened as a merged entity called "Mizuho", the ATM system immediately crashed). Japan being a country that doesn't believe in GAAP, such mergers are a very difficult problem. I don't know the details, but I wouldn't even be surprised if encodings played a role in that mess because Japanese companies often have their own internal variants of the national standard JIS encoding.
