Project narrative
In June 2009, ICBC agreed to contribute to the $125 million USD syndicated loan to Indonesian state-backed Bank Ekspor Indonesia (BEI). Other arrangers of the loan include Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Intesa Sanpaolo, OCBC, and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp. Proceeds were for refinancing a 2008 loan and for trade finance. This loan carried a maturity period of one year and an interest rate of 3.1%. As of June 2009, the loan was in the market and not closed. The loan may have been up-sized, down-sized, or [unlikely] canceled.
Staff comments
1. This loan carried a 3.1% interest rate (AidData calculated the interest rate as follows: 1.1% [average 6-month LIBOR in 2009] + 2% [200 basis points] = 3.1%). 2. Since the amount that each actor contributed is unknown, Aiddata assumes each contributed equally ($25 million).
