Custody Bank of Japan Ltd. will set up a second panel of outside lawyers to probe alleged misconduct by its former top executive, according to people familiar with the matter.
The move by the bank, whose major shareholders include Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Holdings Inc., came after the regulator deemed the initial investigation conducted by a similar panel in January to be unsatisfactory.
