DBS extends $47.7m sustainability-linked loan to PSA Marine

The loan was the first to be granted to the country's maritime industry.

DBS has granted marine services firm PSA Marine with a three-year $47.7m (EUR30m) equivalent sustainability-linked loan, the first to be granted to the country’s maritime industry.

The loan features an interest rate adjustment linked to an ESG target, which requires a fleet of PSA Marine’s crew transfer vessels to be substantially deployed to support offshore wind energy-related activities.

PSA Marine’s subsidiary, Ventus Marine Limited, currently owns and operates a fleet of 10 modern CTVs to service the renewable offshore wind market in Europe.

The firm’s other business offerings which help facilitate a transition to a low carbon economy include the provision of CTVs and service accommodation transfer vessel services to the offshore wind market in Taiwan, support vessel services to the liquified natural gas market in Bangladesh and harbour towage services with two dual fuel LNG harbour tugs in Singapore.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
