Project narrative
On September 5, 2013, CDB signed a US$30 million loan facility agreement with Canadia Bank for unspecified purposes. On that day "The Fifth China-ASEAN Financial Cooperation and Development Leaders Forum" was held in Nanning. This loan facility has a 6-year maturity and annual interest rate of six-month LIBOR plus a credit spread of 4.00%. Based on the agreements, Canadia Bank is required to place one-year fixed deposits with China Development Bank of amounts equivalent to US$30 million. There's no grace period ("Annual Report 2014" pdf p.78). The LIBOR rate is not identified in reports, so the average 6 Month LIBOR rate from September 2013 (when the financing agreement was signed) is used in the interest rate calculation. Total interest rate for the loan facility is 0.380% + 4.00% = 4.380%.
