The Sanwa Bank (株式会社三和銀行, Kabushiki gaisha Sanwa Ginkō) was a major Japanese bank headquartered in Osaka, which operated from 1933 to 2002. It resulted from the merger of three local banks, Konoike Bank [ja] (est. 1877 as 13th National Bank), 34th Bank [ja] (est. 1878), and Yamaguchi Bank [ja] (est. 1879 as 148th National Bank).

In 2002, Sanwa Bank merged with Tokai Bank and Toyo Trust and Banking to form UFJ Bank, itself a predecessor entity of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group.
