Dr Ayo Adepoju, Group Chief Financial Officer, ETI, announced this in a notification to the Nigerian Exchange Ltd.(NGX) on Monday in Lagos.

Adepoju said that Afreximbank and AFC would act as Global Coordinators and Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers to support trade finance and the general corporate purposes of the group.

He stated that Mashreq Bank psc. also joined the transaction as a Mandated Lead Arranger.

According to him, the facility has a tenor of 12 months, with a six-month extension option at the lenders’ discretion.

Adepoju said: ”The bridge-to-bond loan also comprises an accordion feature that enables an increase in the total commitments under the facility within a given timeframe.

“We are very excited about this new facility, which provides additional liquidity buffers for the bank.

The CFO noted that the firm had continuously demonstrated market support and, in particular, diversify its funding sources under challenging economic conditions.

Adepoju said this reflected the amount of work that had been done in cementing relationships and building credibility in recent years.

It serves as a bridge between a company’s immediate funding needs and its long-term financing plans, typically in the form of issuing bonds.

The loans also provide interim financing for companies to meet urgent financial requirements while they prepare for longer-term capital-raising activities, such as issuing bonds.
