Wiki route
This entry sits under cooperative-banks INDEX. Read it against Fuyo General Lease for peer / contrast context and banking index for the broader system / regulatory boundary. As a JV body of the JA / Norinchukin + Mitsui families, it should be cross-read with Norinchukin for the JA-side context.
TL;DR
JA Mitsui Lease is a general leasing company established on April 1, 2008, and its official company profile organizes its business into rental, installment sales, various types of financing, and ancillary businesses. The Norinchukin Bank, Mitsui & Co., JA Zen-Noh, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank are officially listed as major shareholders, but the company does not refer to any one company as the “parent company.” The bank’s license cannot be confirmed, but it has announced other regulatory qualifications as money lending business registration and Type 2 Financial Instruments Transaction Business Registration. ^[Sources: https://www.jamitsuilease.co.jp/company/basic_info.html; https://www.jamitsuilease.co.jp/kinsyou.html; https://www.fsa.go.jp/menkyo/menkyoj/kasi.pdf.]
