BYD said the decision would not have any significant impact on its financial position or operations.
The Chinese automaker in June last year signed a contract to set up 80 percent owned joint venture BYD Auto Finance Company Limited with registered capital of 500 million yuan ($77.3 million) in Shenzhen, to provide loans for new vehicle buyers.
