Olam unit bags US$1.75b sustainability-linked loan

Nineteen banks participated in the facility.

Olam Food Ingredients (ofi), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Olam Group, secured a multi-tranche sustainability-linked facility aggregating US$1.75b.

“The facility is initially guaranteed by Olam Group Limited which will transfer to ofi Group Limited following the planned IPO and demerger of ofi,” the company said in a bourse filing.

The facility compromises a two-year and three-year Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”) and a three-year term loan.

“The interest margin on the facility is linked to the achievement of certain sustainability targets and could reduce if those targets are met,” Olam Group said.

Ofi will use proceeds from the facility to refinance its existing loans and general corporate purposes.

Meanwhile, Olam Group shared that 19 banks from Australia, Canada, China, Europe, Japan, the Middle East, Singapore and the United States participated in the facility across four tiers.

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.
