In 2014, the Board of Directors approved EBRD participation in a bond issuance programme for up to MAD 125 million (EUR 11 million) for the subscription, in MAD, to a privately placed bond issued by Zalagh Holding S.A. (the Company).
Project Objectives
The EBRD’s participation in the Company’s planned series of bond issuances were to enable the Company to finance a modernisation and expansion programme in Morocco, fund additional working capital needs related to this programme, and restructure its balance sheet. Further, it presented an opportunity for a Moroccan corporate bond to receive a credit rating from an international ratings agency. |
