First City Monument Bank Limited has announced the signing of a $150m senior unsecured term loan facility with Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft and Standard Chartered Bank acting as initial mandated lead arrangers and book-runners.
A statement by the bank on Wednesday stated that the agreement represented its largest fundraising to date in the commercial bank syndicated loan market.
The facility, which was pre-funded by Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft and Standard Chartered Bank, was inaugurated at $100m and subsequently increased following a highly successful general syndication phase.
The statement stated that the proceeds of the facility would be used for general lending purposes, adding that Standard Chartered Bank would act as a facility agent.
