Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In July 2009, a syndicate of six banks — including the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) — entered into $150 million SGD syndicated loan facility with Toll (Asia) Pte. Ltd. — a Singapore-incorporated and based logistics and transportation company and subsidiary of Australia-incorporated and based Toll Holdings Pty Limited, which is wholly owned by Japan Post Co., Ltd, which is 100% owned by Japan Post Holdings Co., Ltd. — for capital expenditures and the upgrade of a supply in Loyang. The facility carries a two-year maturity and an interest rate of 195 basis points (bps) over the Singapore dollar swap rate (SOR). Proceeds from the loan were to be used to finance the upgrade of a supply base in the Loyang neighborhood in Singapore and for general capital expenditures. Members of the syndicate included DBS, OCBC, United Overseas Bank, CTBC, ICBC, and Mega International Commercial Bank. Mandated lead arrangers could take a $25 million SGD ticket or more for fees of 55 bps, while arrangers can lend $15 million SGD-$24 million SGD for 500 bps. The status of each individual lender is unknown.

Staff comments

1. The individual contributions of the six lenders to this $150 million SGD syndicated loan are unknown. For the time being, to estimate ICBC's contribution AidData has assumed each lender contributed equally ($25,000,000 SGD) to the loan syndicate. 2. 2. AidData estimates the interest rate by adding 6-month SIBOR at the time of the commitment (0.41125%) plus the applicable margin (1.95%) equal to 2.36125%.
