Loan Insurance for Implementation of Japan–U.S. Strategic Investment Initiative

Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI, Chairman and CEO: Atsuo Kuroda) has decided to provide insurance for a loan related to the second investment execution of the natural gas-fired power plant construction and operation project in the State of Ohio, United States (“the Project”) implemented under the Japan–U.S. Strategic Investment Initiative agreed between the Governments of Japan and the United States.

This increase was implemented through our prior consent to the amendment, pursuant to an amendment agreement executed on September 25 to increase the maximum insured loan amount for the Project (originally announced on May 1, 2026¹). As a result, the total Insured Amount comes to approximately USD 3,941 million.

Based on the Memorandum of Understanding with respect to the Japan–U.S. Strategic Investments agreed upon and announced by the Governments of Japan and the United States in September 2025 (“MOU”), NEXI provides insurance for the loan extended by private financial institutions to the Japanese investment entities serving as the investment vehicles (established and invested in by the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC)) for investment in the Project covered by the MOU.
