Aircraft and Aircraft Engine Leasing Business

Based on our recognition of rising air traffic demand led by growth in emerging economy countries, Marubeni entered the aircraft leasing business in 2010 and the engine leasing business in 2011. In 2013, Marubeni took a stake in Aircastle Ltd., one of the world’s major aircraft leasing companies, and in 2020, Marubeni completed full acquisition of the company by acquiring all of its shares together with Mizuho Leasing.
Those decisions were based on a wide range of accumulated knowledge and experience regarding aviation industries, from sales and marketing to aftermarket solutions.

Refrigerated Trailer Lease & Rental, and Rental Car Business

This Division develops refrigerated trailer leasing and rental car businesses that respond to the strong demand for land transport in the United States. Also, as the cold chain market is expected to rapidly expand globally, in 2019 we effectively applied our knowledge of U.S. markets and our partners’ IoT technical capabilities to enter into the refrigerated trailer leasing and rental market in China.

General Leasing & Non-bank Business

We provide the best solutions to meet our clients’ financial needs with our extensive product lineup. At the end of March 2019, we entered into a strategic alliance with Mizuho Leasing Company and completed a capital restructuring of Mizuho Marubeni Leasing (formerly MG Leasing Corporation) to make it a joint business with Mizuho Leasing Company. Moving forward, in a collaboration with Mizuho Leasing Company, we will further promote Mizuho Marubeni Leasing presence as a Marubeni Group captive leasing company and expand its business domain in overseas markets.

Corporate Investment and Fund Management Business

As an early pioneer of Japanese domestic private equity funds, this Division’s strength lies in its ability to use investment knowledge and experience gained over more than 20 years, as well as the combined power of the Marubeni Group, in order to provide business assistance to investees, and thus develop corporate investment funds. Additionally, the Division is also proactively involved in the management of infrastructure funds and other new types of funds both in Japan and abroad. Also, the Division is proactively involved in the operation of new funds, including the listed Japan Infrastructure Fund Investment Corporation.

Next Generation Finance Business

As global demand for digital finance consumer services is expected to grow in the future, in 2020 Marubeni invested in AND Global, a Mongolia-based company with a fintech development base of operations also located in Mongolia.
Leveraging the Marubeni Group’s knowledge and experience in running overseas businesses, as well as its ample network both in Japan and abroad, Marubeni will support the overseas development of AND Global’s fintech solutions, and promote the expansion of their business.
