Project Description
The Project will consist of an EBRD A Loan and a syndicated B Loan for a combined amount of up to USD 100 million. The funds will be used to expand CEB’s loan portfolio, especially in the regions. The syndication is led in parallel with IFC.
The Project is aimed at supporting CEB’s regional expansion plans and its lending activities. In addition, EBRD’s participation in the Project will help CEB secure long-term and diversified funding.
Transition Impact
The Project is expected to have an impact by supporting post-crisis recovery of international syndication market and diversifying CEB’s funding base.
The project is the first attempt of CEB to tap into the syndication loan markets after the hit of the global financial crisis. The EBRD will continue to play a key role in mobilising international funds needed to support the sector and the real economy, as demonstrated in 2010 with the successful syndications led in the Russian financial sector.
The Project will also assist CEB in consolidating existing market share, particularly in the regions, in a highly competitive environment.
