第16章 關於本公司/免責聲明

Japan trade finance market is projected to witness a CAGR of 6.42% during the forecast period FY2025-FY2032, growing from USD 2.39 billion in FY2024 to USD 3.93 billion in FY2032. The growth of the market is caused by several interrelated factors. Economic recovery and growth have fueled a higher demand for trade finance services as Japanese companies become increasingly active players in international markets. Globalization is an important underpinning factor where firms seek to optimize their supply chains and manage cross-border transactions effectively. Technological advancements, especially in fintech, are streamlining processes and making services more accessible, thereby making the trade finance solution more efficient. Moreover, government initiatives in the form of pro-export policies and support for SMEs fuel market demand.

However, increased awareness of geopolitical risks increases the importance of securing trade finance to protect against uncertainties. Along with it, interest in sustainable trade practices is providing the necessary impetus for financial institutions to innovate with green financing options. As movements of currency trigger risk management practices, companies seek trade finance products as hedging tools. Consequently, the competitive environment of financial institutions spurs innovation and better pricing, thereby creating a vibrant atmosphere needed for the market to thrive.

Trade finance encompasses the financial instruments and services that enable firms to minimize risks associated with importation and exportation. Major products in trade finance include letters of credit, documentary collections, and supply chain financing, which provide secure payment and a hassle-free transaction process. Trade finance helps globalize trade by mitigating most risks, such as non-payment and currency fluctuations. In September 2024, the Japan Bank for International Cooperation signed a loan agreement to set up a line of credit worth up to USD 150 million with the Black Sea Trade and Development Bank (BSTDB). This credit facility will be used for the world financial crisis and eco-related projects, with up to USD 150 million available for emergency measures and USD 75 million specifically for GREEN operations.

Digitization is Fueling Market Expansion

Digitization is driving growth in Japan trade finance market by streamlining its accessibility and effectiveness for businesses engaged in cross-border transactions. In this regard, financial institutions are making processes, such as document verification and risk assessment, smoother through blockchain technology, artificial intelligence, and data analytics. The need to balance privacy and transparency with a comfortable threshold defines transaction times in this technological change. New digital channels give SMEs access to trade finance solutions that were previously reserved for larger businesses, thereby increasing participation in international trade. In August 2024, MUFG Bank Limited, a Japan-based bank, and NTT DATA published a white paper, Services Infrastructure for Financial Industry Use Case, issued by the Innovative Optical and Wireless Network Global Forum (IOWN-GF). In this paper, financial organizations are demonstrated as seamlessly adopting next-generation technologies to transform their digital services.

Fintech companies are complementing traditional banks by providing innovative and user-friendly services that respond to new requirements of exporters and importers. Therefore, companies can better handle the risk and utilize cash flows more effectively while meeting the market demand requirements. Research on 6G technology and the development of 5G infrastructure will be required for industrial usage. To support its digital agenda, the Japanese government has established a digital agency that would focus on the digitalization of the government and the public sector. The trend in digitization enables individual businesses on their own and enhances the overall economic environment in Japan by engaging in intensive trade activities that put the country at a competitive edge in the global market.

Rising Demand for Sustainable Trade to Drive Market Growth

Growth in demand for sustainable trade is enhancing market growth for trade finance in Japan. Companies in this country are gradually embracing responsible practices, which would help a brand improve its reputation and meet the expectations of its consumers, investors, and regulatory bodies. This adoption is marked by environmental impact through reducing practices, ethical sourcing, and assurance of fair labor conditions. Feedback from green initiatives, including funding for renewable energy projects and eco-friendly logistics, has prompted financial institutions in Japan to come up with innovative trade finance products. The businesses, in the meantime, are seeking funding options aligning with their sustainability objectives, which are creating niche finance solutions targeted at green trade. In March 2024, JSC Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV) and MUFG Bank Limited jointly announced the successful execution of their first green trade loan transaction. Funds raised under this innovative loan will be used to refinance the importation of steel scrap.

Consequently, trade finance supports Japanese companies during the transition period to take on greener business practices by supplying needed capital and risk management services. Such an increased emphasis on sustainability heralds a stronger market but also a more resilient and responsible trading environment in the context of which Japan emerges as a forerunner in the globalization of sustainable economic practices.

Banks to Dominate Japan Trade Finance Market Share

The banks have been the most dominant players in Japan trade finance market due to their acquired experience, diversified products, and wide networks. Japanese banks have been integral players in international trade, notably with services such as letters of credit, documentary collections, and supply chain financing. A deep understanding of domestic and global markets helps in catering to the diverse needs of businesses more effectively. As companies are looking to better optimize their cash flow and mitigate risks from cross-border transactions, banks are evolving their services with digital solutions and advanced technologies, making them more efficient and easily accessible.

Support from the government in Japan in terms of trade and digitalization further boosts the role of banks. As the sector evolves with stronger interests in sustainability, banks are innovating financing solutions to be environmentally responsible, keeping with the demand for green trade finance. This convergence of factors has set up the banks segment to be a growth driver of Japan trade finance market as they are poised to win the market in the forecast period. In October 2024, Mizuho Bank Limited, a Japan-based bank, entered into a facility agreement with True Corporation Public Company Limited after being appointed as the mandated arranger for True Corporation's first sustainability-linked cross-border syndicated loan. The facility was launched with an initial size of around USD 740 million.

Central Japan to Dominate the Trade Finance Market

At the core of Japan trade finance market, the Central region dominates the share with the highest concentration located in the general vicinity of Tokyo and its neighboring prefectures. This country's business and financial capital hosts many large banks and financial institutions offering fundamental trade finance services, including letters of credit, documentary collections, and supply chain financing. This focus on financial skills allows firms to look for an incredibly broad range of solutions tailored to their activities in international trade. The region further has a strong infrastructure, from developing logistics networks to transportation systems, that allows easy transportation of goods. There are several multinationals and SMEs present in Kanto that seek innovative financing options to navigate the intricacies of cross-border transactions, further supporting regional dominance. Continuing government initiatives to promote trade and digitalization will ensure that Kanto maintains control over Japan's trade finance market in the forecast period.

In September 2024, the Japan Bank for International Cooperation entered into a guaranteed contract valued at around USD 94 million with private financial institutions to assist ANA Holdings Inc. in financing the import of a Boeing aircraft that will boost ANAHD's competitiveness and strengthen the international standing of the Japanese aviation industry.

South is gaining prominence in Japan trade finance market. It includes industrial cities on an enormous scale, such as Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe. Kansai has a huge industrial base and firms that are increasing international trade and maintain strong consideration in the growth of the market. Kansai is a brilliant location for logistics infrastructure and focuses on trade finance through digital solutions, making it an important name in the marketplace. The region is home to several small and medium-sized enterprises and innovative businesses that are increasingly looking to trade finance options to support their global operations.

Future Market Scenario (FY2025 - FY2032F)

An increased emphasis on sustainability is going to define the market scenario as companies increasingly seek out green financing to support eco-friendly trade practices.

Continuous globalization of trade will give opportunities for Japanese entities to expand their global footprint and will require robust solutions for trade finance.

Key Players Landscape and Outlook

The competitive landscape of the Japanese trade finance market is characterized by a mix of traditional banks, fintech firms, and new digital platforms vying for market share and customer acquisition. The diversified business-ancillary networks and years of experience that traditional banks have in international trade are relied upon. At the same time, fintech firms rely upon innovative, technology-driven solutions that attract more digitally native, technologically savvy businesses to their fold.

In response, companies are implementing various strategies, such as digital transformation, to streamline their processes and enhance customer experience. Many companies are investing in technologies, such as blockchain and AI, to accelerate transactions and improve security. Of course, there is a notable focus on sustainability with the creation of green financing options aligning with growing corporate responsibility initiatives. An uptick in collaboration and partnerships is occurring among banks and fintechs that enable firms to combine traditional expertise with new approaches. Moreover, improving customer service and offering customer-tailored financial solutions would become part of an essential strategy for attracting diversified clients and strengthening competitive positioning in this rapidly evolving market.

In September 2024, the Japan Bank for International Cooperation, a Japanese public financial corporation and export credit agency, and Export Development Canada signed a Memorandum of Understanding to further cooperate on issues concerning quality infrastructure, energy transition, and other sectors primarily in Indo-Pacific. This agreement follows upon previous commitments by Japan and Canada to deepen their partnership in support of Japanese businesses and encourage collaboration between the two countries.
