To encourage Japanese companies to participate in natural resource development, JBIC provided loans for expanding the Escondida Copper Mine Project in Chile and for acquiring interests in onshore oilfields within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates. These loans contribute to securing a stable supply of energy resources and base metals which are vital for Japan.

2.Financing Overseas Projects to Maintain and Improve the International Competitiveness of Japanese Industries

JBIC signed export loan agreements to finance exports of Japanese facilities to Indonesia's Kalselteng 2 coal-fired power plant and Vietnam's ultra-supercritical coal-fired power generation plant. 

(2)Supporting Overseas Business Deployment of Mid-Tier Enterprises and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SME)
JBIC approved 5 loans totaling approximately JPY1.1 billion to assist the overseas business deployment of mid-tier enterprises and SMEs. These include the loan to a Vietnamese subsidiary of Uchiyama Manufacturing Corp, engaging in the manufacturing and sales business of automobile parts. In addition, JBIC supported facility procurement, through finance leases, by mid-tier enterprises and SMEs with overseas operations, according to the investment credit lines previously established between JBIC and the following two finance leasing companies: a Thai subsidiary of Mitsubishi UFJ Lease & Finance Company Limited and an Indonesian subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company, Limited.

(3)Supporting Overseas Business Expansion through Establishment of "Special Operations"
To follow the Japanese government's initiative of the "Partnership for Quality Infrastructure," aimed at promoting "Quality Infrastructure Investment," JBIC launched Special Operations in October 2016, which enable JBIC to provide greater assistance for Japanese companies participating in infrastructure businesses outside of Japan by taking further risks in expanding the number of countries and infrastructure businesses which are entitled to its financing. Under the framework of the Special Operations, JBIC signed an export loan agreement with the government of the Argentine Republic to finance the purchase of a set of railway signal systems by State Company of Administration of Railway Infrastructure. This is the second loan agreement that JBIC has reached so far within the scope of the Special Operations.
