The unique credit line construction was developed by the MET Group's financial team together with ING Bank, which led the project as coordinator, collateral and credit facility agent. Natixis CIB and Société Générale joined it as active organizing banks. 

The credit line, originally launched with EUR 1 billion and intended to refinance a short-term revolving credit line of EUR 885 million, was oversubscribed and closed at EUR 1.33 bln with the participation of 16 international banks.
