US-based CSI Leasing, an independent equipment leasing company, has expanded its Asia-Pacific operations by opening a subsidiary in Japan.
This expansion follows the recent launch of CSI Leasing India in November 2020. According to a company press release, the company has seven leasing subsidiaries in the Asia-Pacific region and services customers in more than 40 countries worldwide.
The new entity, CSI Leasing Japan K.K., will immediately begin servicing CSI’s existing portfolio of global customers with subsidiaries in Japan and will seek new business with companies headquartered there as well.
CSI’s parent company, Tokyo Century Corporation and its network of global subsidiaries, will also offer CSI’s fair market value technology leasing expertise to its customer base.
Steve Hamilton, chairman and chief executive of CSI Leasing, said: “CSI has several customers with operations in Japan. This new subsidiary is first and foremost driven by the demand from those existing customers. That, along with Tokyo Century’s continued support and exposure to their clients, will provide substantial opportunities for CSI to grow its already significant multi-national customer base. A subsidiary in Japan will allow us to provide an even more seamless experience to our global customers.”
CSI’s current managing director and chief executive of Asia-Pacific, Cheng Chiin Ong, will manage the new subsidiary. Cheng Chiin has been with CSI for 10 years and has more than 20 years of leasing experience. She has a proven track record of success in leading the region, including CSI’s subsidiaries in Malaysia, Singapore, China and Hong Kong.
