Description

On July 18, 2011, the Chinese Government and the Government of Kenya signed an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ECTA), which committed an RMB 50 million interest-free loan for unspecified purposes. The loan carries the following borrowing terms: a 10.5-year grace period, a 20.5-year maturity, and a 0% interest rate. The loan was scheduled for repayment in semi-annual installments commencing on April 1, 2021 and ending on April 1, 2031. However, there is no evidence of the borrower making any repayments in 2021 or 2022. The loan’s amount outstanding was RMB 50 million as of June 30, 2020, RMB 50 million as of June 30, 2021, and RMB 50 million as of June 30, 2022.
