Full Description

Project narrative

On October 3, 2014, a group of 29 banks -- including ICBC and Bank of China -- reached financial close on a USD 1.73 billion syndicate multi-tranche lending facility to Trafigura Beheer B.V. The facility consists of three tranches: a USD 1.08 billion 364-day revolving credit facility, a USD 435 million three-year term loan, and a USD 215 million-equivalent one-year RMB-denominated tranche. Proceeds from the facility will be used for general corporate purposes and to refinance maturing tranches from Trafigura's 2011 (captured via Record ID#97993, #97994) and 2013 facilities (captured via Record ID#98438, 98439). Information on interest rates is unknown. ICBC's contribution is captured via Record ID#98453. BOC's contribution is captured via Record ID#98455. A total of 29 banks participated in the facility. ANZ Group, DBS Bank, ICBC, Standard Chartered, UOB, OCBC, Bank of China and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation served as original mandated lead arrangers and bookrunners. ChinaTrust Bank Co and ICBC acted as bookrunners for the RMB-denominated tranche. The other participants in the syndicate are unknown.

Staff comments

1. AidData is unable to ascertain the individual contributions to the facility from each member of the syndicate, therefore equal contributions have been assumed (1.72/29). 2. AidData is unable to ascertain whether the tranches to which the two Chinese banks contributed, therefore the average maturity of the three tranches has been used in the creation of this project record.
