Bank of Baroda and Mizuho partner on Indian M&A financing amid corporate consolidation boom

Bank of Baroda and Mizuho Bank have formed a partnership to jointly structure and finance M&A deals in India. The alliance pairs Baroda's domestic reach and relationships with major Indian conglomerates against Mizuho's access to low-cost Japanese capital and global acquisition structuring expertise.

India is experiencing a surge in corporate consolidation across infrastructure, renewable energy, and digital tech. These transactions often involve multibillion-dollar structured financing that exceeds the balance sheet capacity and technical bandwidth of purely domestic lenders.
