Project narrative
On December 22, 2011, China Development Bank (CDB) signed a letter of intent to issue a $200 million loan to Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV)— a state-owned bank— for on-lending purposes. The loan was to carry a 5-year maturity but no additional borrowing terms are available. Then, on November 5, 2015, CDB and BIDV signed the final $200 million loan agreement. The proceeds of the loan were to be used by BIDV to on-lend in support of economic development projects (power, telecommunication, agricultural, transport, construction) in Vietnam. This was the second credit package that CDB granted to BIDV following a $100 million loan in 2010 (see Record ID#85378).
