UAE bank names arrangers, targets US$100mn+ in new funding.
Bank of Sharjah has appointed Commerzbank, National Bank of Abu Dhabi, Intesa Sanpaolo and Wells Fargo to arrange a new two-year syndicated loan.
The UAE bank plans to secure at least US$100mn for general corporate purposes. The management team says the goal is “to source US dollars to manage the bank’s assets and liabilities and currency mismatches”.
The loan will follow a one-year US$150mn club deal arranged last year and due on July 29.
