Herter & Co. has advised TRIMET Aluminium SE on the renewal and amendment of its syndicated loan and other existing loan agreements. The new syndicated loan amounts to €120m and provides the Group with long-term financing security at attractive conditions.
“Based on the strong operating performance of TRIMET, we have closed a very successful refinancing. Aside from pricing, improving operational flexibility in relation to the credit documentation has been a primary focus of ours. Thanks also to the excellent support and services provided by Herter & Co., we have achieved all the goals we had set ourselves for this transaction”, said Martin Söffge, Chief Financial Officer of TRIMET Aluminium SE.
Lead-managed by a consortium of 4 German and international banks, the syndicated loan facility is provided by 9 banks in total.
