Staff comments

1. DAE is 100% indirectly owned by Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD), the Government of Dubai's principal investment arm. 2. The breakdown of contributions between CCB and CCB (Asia) to this $300 million USD loan is unknown. For now, AidData has assumed that each bank contributed equally ($150,000,000 USD) to the syndicated loan.
