Aiful Corporation provides consumer, mortgage, and guaranteed loans to individuals and business customers in Japan. Aiful operates via more than 900 domestic branches and specializes in consumer credit, credit cards, and small-to-medium enterprise loans. A network of subsidiaries help shoulder the work, including Life (shopping loans and credit), Businext (small business loans), City's (small business loans), Tryto (unsecured loans), and Wide (unsecured loans). The company got its start in 1978 with four branches offering unsecured consumer loans. Struggling with its own debt repayments, Aiful is working on a restructuring plan which could include branch closures and/or payroll cuts.
