Seamless strategy to FY16 funding and construction
Further to its streaming deal in October, EurOmax Resources Ltd. (TO:EOX) announced on 1 May that it had mandated three banks plus Caterpillar Financial (NYSE:CAT) to provide up to US$240m of project and equipment finance for the development of Ilovitza at 2.75-3.25% above LIBOR. Moreover, it has confirmed that Ilovitza is also eligible to participate in the German UFK scheme, whereby the German government provides a direct guarantee to the banking consortium, which then enables it to designate the loan as German sovereign risk rather than project finance (thereby materially lowering the perceived risk).
