Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On July 31, 2008 a group of banks — including the China Construction Bank Corporation (CCB) Singapore branch— reached financial close on a SGD 850 million syndicated loan to Parkway Holdings Ltd, a Singapore-based healthcare services company. This loan carried a maturity of five years and was split into two tranches: a SGD 560 tranche used for land acquisition and a SDG 260 million construction loan for a new hospital. The margin was priced at 200bp over SOR. Syndication saw a total of 13 commitments. CIMB Bank and Natixis (Singapore) joined in as equal status mandated lead arrangers. Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ and Commonwealth Bank of Australia (Singapore) served as lead arrangers. China Construction Bank (Singapore), DZ Bank (Singapore), Maybank, and NordLB (Singapore) joined in as arrangers. Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (Singapore), Bank of East Asia, Korea Exchange Bank (Singapore), RHB Bank and State Bank of India (Singapore) served as lead managers.

Staff comments

1. AidData estimates the interest by taking the 6-month average SIBOR at the time of commitment (0.8125%) plus the applicable margin (2%) equal to 2.8125%. 2. The exact size of BOC contribution is unknown. For the time being, AidData assumes that all 13 members of the lending syndicate contributed equally (SGD 65,384615.4) to the SGD 850 million syndicated loan.
