Chinese Government provides RMB 150 million interest-free loan — via ETCA — for unspecified purposes

📋 Staff Comments

1. Given that the loan either fully or partially disbursed but it is not known how these loan proceeds were utilized, AidData has set the umbrella field to False.
2. The loan identification number in the Government of Kenya’s External Public Debt Register is 2014010_1.
3. The grace period of the loan is unknown. For the time being, AidData assumes a grace period of 10-years given standard borrowing terms for interest-free loans from MOFCOM include a 10-year grace period.
4. The amounts outstanding and repayments data are drawn from the Kenyan Treasury’s External Public Debt Register.
