Mizuho bank ltd Paris branch

Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Paris Branch is the French office of Japan-based Mizuho Bank within Mizuho Financial Group, serving corporate and institutional clients rather than the retail market. The branch provides corporate lending (bilateral and syndicated), trade finance (letters of credit, guarantees, documentary collections), working capital and cash management, and treasury products including foreign exchange and interest rate hedging. It participates in structured and project finance, acquisition finance, and real estate finance, often in coordination with other Mizuho offices across EMEA and Asia. The branch operates under the supervision of the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution (ACPR) and is subject to applicable French and EU frameworks, including MiFID II for investment services and EMIR for derivatives reporting, as well as KYC/AML obligations under the French Monetary and Financial Code. Services are aimed at professional clients, with onboarding and documentation tailored to corporate structures and cross-border transactions; product distribution is typically conducted in English, French, and Japanese by relationship teams that liaise with sector and product specialists across the group. Pricing is negotiated per transaction and reflects credit profile, structure, tenor, and ancillary business. Availability of products, legal terms, and any local requirements should be confirmed directly with the branch before engagement.
