DBS launches cross-border RMB loans in Suzhou Industrial Park

SINGAPORE — DBS has introduced cross-border renminbi (RMB) loans for companies in the Suzhou Industrial Park, the bank’s China branch announced today (June 20).

The move comes after Singapore and China announced a new initiative to allow eligible companies and individuals in the Suzhou park to conduct cross-border RMB transactions with Singapore. This means banks in Singapore will be allowed to lend the Chinese currency to companies in the Suzhou park. Firms there can issue RMB-denominated bonds in Singapore, while equity investment funds in the park can directly invest in Singapore-based companies.

HSBC Singapore and DBS Bank are among the first local banks to provide RMB-denominated loans to companies in China's Suzhou Industrial Park (SIP) under the latest RMB cross border financing initiative, as banks race to increase their business in the world's second largest economy.

With the help of HSBC's Suzhou Branch, two corporates have obtained loans for a total of RMB 150 million from HSBC Singapore, the bank said.

Both enterprises are registered with SIP; one is in bus manufacturing, and the other is a distributor of allied industrial electronics, HSBC said.

DBS Bank said it has helped, via its unit DBS Bank (China), a customer from Southeast Asia based in SIP to get a RMB loan under the new SIP cross-border RMB transactions initiative.
