Grant Description

China Eximbank provides buyer’s credit loan for 7th Khoroolol Housing Construction Project On August 21, 2014, China Eximbank and the State Housing Corporation of Mongolia — a state-owned housing enterprise in Mongolia — signed a financing agreement for the 7th Khoroolol Housing Construction Project.

📅 Maturity15 years
💹 Interest Rate2%

Then, in June 2015, the Cabinet of the Government of Mongolia provided its approval for the Development Bank of Mongolia (DBM) — a state-owned development bank in Mongolia — to on-lend the proceeds of the loan from China Eximbank to State Housing Corporation of Mongolia.

Then, in July 2016, China Eximbank and the DBM signed a buyer’s credit loan agreement for the 7th Khoroolol Housing Construction Project.

The proceeds of the loan were to be used by the borrower to finance 85% of the cost of a $221,447,500 commercial contract between Beijing Uni.-Construction Group Co., Ltd. (BUCC) and the State Housing Corporation of Mongolia, which was signed in 2014 (and possibly revised on January 7, 2015). The precise face value of the China Eximbank buyer’s credit is unknown.

However, the borrower was authorized to use the proceeds of the buyer’s credit to finance up to 85% of the commercial contract with Beijing Uni.-Construction Group Co., Ltd. (BUCC).

Therefore, AidData assumes that the face value of the buyer’s credit was equivalent to 85% of $221,447,500 ($188,230,375).

The purpose of the project is to construct a housing complex (‘Complex G’) — that can accommodate 4460 households — in the 7th Khoroo within Ulaanbaatar’s Sukhbaatar District. BUCC is the contractor responsible for implementation. AidData has not identified any evidence that this project has entered implementation.

  3. The precise face value of the China Eximbank buyer’s credit is unknown. However, the borrower was authorized to use the proceeds of the buyer’s credit to finance up to 85% of the commercial contract with Beijing Uni.-Construction Group Co., Ltd. (BUCC).

  4. Some media sources suggest that this loan was provided in two tranches, with the first tranche carrying a 2% interest rate, 15-year maturity, and 3-year grace period and the second tranche carrying a 4.1% interest rate, 5-year maturity, and 3-year grace period. This issue merits further investigation.
