There may be a story. The previous owners of the SOWA bank (which filed for bankrupty in 1999), the Osada brothers, were involved in a major financial scandal in 1999. They owned a luxury hotel where Chirac reportedly stayed once.
I will become a patissier, God willing.

One of the Osadas, Shoichi, used at least to (perhaps still does) have friendly relations with Chirac, who awarded him the
Légion d'honneur
in 1994.
Luxury hotels, too, Chirac likes...
