JAKARTA. PT United Tractors Tbk (UNTR), through one of its subsidiaries, PT Bina Pertiwi (BP), had channelled loans of IDR 24.5 billion to PT Bina Pertiwi Energi (BPE).
Sara K Loebis, Corporate Secretary of UNTR, claimed that this credit facility was granted with an interest of JIBOR+1% yearly. Furthermore, the said facility would be available for one year, starting from the credit agreement signing on November 19, 2021.
“BP chose to conduct this transaction alongside BPE, its affiliate, because for BP, this transaction could promote operational activities of BPE and is more beneficial [for BP],” Loebis further reasoned in the information disclosure in Indonesia Stock Exchange earlier today (23/11).
