5-year murabaha loan...shariah-complaint

Tasnee signs $319m loan to buy more stake in Cristal

DUBAI, January 23, 2015

Saudi Arabia's National Industrialisation Co (Tasnee) signed a SR1.2 billion ($319.4 million) Islamic loan it will use to part-fund buying a further stake in its subsidiary Cristal, the industrial manufacturer said.

The five-year murabaha loan - a sharia-compliant cost-plus-profit arrangement - is with Riyad Bank and Saudi British Bank. It has a one-year grace period and the option for a one-year extension, with payment due in equal semi-annual instalments.

In December, Tasnee bought a further 13 per cent in Cristal - one of the world's largest producers of titanium dioxide - for SR1.8 billion. - Reuters
