In particular, this is due to a sharp drop in sales both in the domestic Japanese market and abroad: in February, the figure fell by 14% compared to last year, and in March fell by 33%. In addition, work at most plants in Japan and other countries has been stopped since late March.
In addition to requests to MUFG Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking and Mizuho Bank, the Japanese Mazda Motor also applied for a credit line to the State Development Bank of Japan and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank.
Earlier, similar plans were announced by other Japanese automakers - Nissan Motor and Toyota Motor. So, Nissan wants to attract a credit line in the amount of 500 billion yen ($ 4.6 billion), and Toyota - about 6 trillion yen (about $ 55 billion).
