SMFL Leasing Indonesia (SMFLIN), an Indonesian subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company, Limited.

The loan is cofinanced with private financial institutions.

In recent years, against the background of robust economic growth in Indonesia, Japanese companies have been accelerating their business expansion, with mid-tier enterprises and SMEs also showing a growing interest in investing in the country. Accordingly, demand and interest for finance leases for capital investment by Japanese mid-tier enterprises and SMEs are growing. Loans under the credit line will flexibly provide long-term foreign currency funds required for finance leases of such mid-tier enterprises and SMEs, and thus support the overseas business deployment of Japanese mid-tier enterprises and SMEs, thereby contributing to maintaining and strengthening the international competitiveness of Japanese industries.

As Japan's policy-based financial institution, JBIC will continue to support the overseas business deployment of Japanese mid-tier enterprises and SMEs, with a view to maintaining and strengthening the international competitiveness of Japanese industries.
