📋 Staff Comments
  1. It is unclear which subsidiary of ICBC — ICBC Turkey or ICBC Securities (which is, in turn, a subsidiary of ICBC Turkey) — participated in the lending syndicate. ICBC Turkey's 2018 Annual Report only lists 'The Company' as the loan's coordinator and joint book-runner (pg. 40).
  2. For loan and debt rescheduling records with variable interest rates, AidData calculates the all-in interest rate at T0 based on the reference rate (such as LIBOR or EURIBOR) on the loan start date, plus any known margin. Please see the methodology for additional details.
  3. ICBC’s contribution to the $285 million loan tranche is unknown. For the time being, AidData assumes equal contributions ($11.875 million) across the 24 institutions that participated in the lending syndicate.
