MET Group closed a €1.2 billion credit facility for its sales and trading segment, with the financing transaction significantly oversubscribed. ING Bank coordinated the arrangement, whilst Coöperatieve Rabobank, Natixis CIB, and Société Générale served as lead bookrunners. High market demand allowed the company to expand the facility size by €100 million. The contract includes an option to raise the total limit to €1.8 billion. Japanese bank MUFG joined the syndicate as a new partner. According to MET, the transaction provides financial flexibility for the company's strategy and helps build its supply network around customer needs.
