Bank of Baroda entered into a strategic partnership with Japan's Mizuho Bank on June 30, 2026, to strengthen cooperation in Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) financing and related financial services. The collaboration focuses on joint origination, structuring, and syndication of acquisition financing, along with co-underwriting and selected M&A advisory deals. It also aims to develop preferred-partner channels for secondary risk distribution and sub-participation. By combining Mizuho Bank's global expertise with Bank of Baroda's strong domestic presence, the partnership is expected to support cross-border investment opportunities and corporate financing in India.
