Business Forum
ING Bank supported Digi Romania and Digi Communications, the parent company of the telecommunications operator, in arranging a credit facility worth €150 million, for a period of 3 years after the first use. The loan will be used to repay the group's bonds, worth €450 million, due in 2025. The transaction was led by ING as Coordinator, Subscriber, Mandated Principal Arranger, Original Lender and Facility Agent.

ING continues to be one of the main banks of the Digi group. Every year in the last ten, ING has been actively involved in structuring syndicated facilities, bond issues, guaranteed loans from export agencies in various countries, as well as lines of guarantee letters necessary for the acquisition of radio spectrum, both in Romania and in the other countries in which the group operates.

In total, in the last 10 years, ING has granted facilities of €3 billion for the Digi group.

„We are happy to support Digi with this new funding that allows them to focus on their development plans in the coming period. Over time, ING has been able to build a solid relationship with Digi, with each new transaction successfully concluded further strengthening our strategic partnership. The Digi Group has plans for growth both in Romania and in Western European countries, and we are determined to contribute from our role as financial partner to this success story," says Raluca Radbata, Coordinator of the Telecom, Media & Technology Sector, ING Bank Romania.

„ING Bank has been supporting the Digi Group's expansion, locally and internationally, for 25 years now. Digi is now one of the most important telecom operators, both in Romania and in Europe, an example for telecom companies, with a strong management team and a vision focused on providing quality services at an affordable price for its customers, in a sustainable way, in all the countries in which it operates. Funding is an important benchmark for Digi, and the attractive terms of the transaction highlight Digi's high creditworthiness as well as their external shock-resistant business model,“ added Andrei Dobre, Director of Telecom, Media & Technology at ING Bank N.V. Amsterdam.
