3. Strategy and competition

• Multi-pathway electrification: Toyota does not rely solely on BEVs but combines HEV / PHEV / BEV / FCEV. On the financial side, residual-value setting and used-car price outlooks are important.
• Integration with sales finance: toyota-financial connects vehicle sales, leasing, insurance, and the dealer network, supporting the sales cycle of the manufacturing parent.
• Supply-chain finance: Toyota-affiliated parts companies, regional suppliers, and capital investment connect to the corporate finance of mufg, smfg, mizuho-fg, and regional banks.
• Foreign-exchange / trade risk: As a global production and export company, it is significantly affected by yen depreciation/appreciation, tariffs, and U.S.-China and U.S.-Japan trade policy.

4. Regulation and policy

• As a listed company, it is subject to disclosure under the TSE, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, and the Companies Act.
• It is affected by automobile safety and environmental regulations, CO2 emissions regulations, and each country’s EV subsidy and tariff policies.
• Its finance subsidiary is subject to financial supervision, consumer credit, leasing, and insurance sales regulations in each country.
