SNB appoints lead arrangers for $1bn loan

Saudi National Bank, the country’s largest bank by assets, is planning to raise a $1 billion syndicated loan to support Vision 2030 development.

Singapore-based DBS Bank and Japan’s Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group have been mandated lead arrangers and bookrunners, Bloomberg reported, quoting unidentified sources.

The five-year loan is being syndicated to the global markets, particularly Asia. 

SNB expects to pay an interest margin of 90 basis points over the benchmark secured overnight financing rate.

Middle Eastern companies have raised $13.5 billion in syndicated loans across the Asia Pacific region so far this year, Bloomberg’s report said.

In October SNB reported an almost 21 percent year-on-year increase in net profit to SAR6.5 billion ($1.7 billion), driven by a double-digit increase in total operating income and a similar decline in operating expenses.

The bank’s shares, which trade on the Saudi stock exchange, were trading 0.6 percent higher at SAR36.30 on Monday. The stock is up 33 percent so far this year.

The Public Investment Fund, the Saudi sovereign wealth fund, is a major shareholder of SNB.

Saudi Awwal Bank Adopts Chainlink Tools, LINK Near $23

The post Saudi Awwal Bank Adopts Chainlink Tools, LINK Near $23 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SAB adopts Chainlink’s CCIP and CRE to expand tokenization and cross-border finance tools. SAB and Wamid target $2.32T Saudi capital markets with blockchain-based tokenization plans. LINK price falls 2.43% to $22.99 despite higher trading volume and steady liquidity ratios. Saudi Awwal Bank has added Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to its digital strategy. CCIP links assets and data across multiple blockchains, while CRE provides banks with a controlled framework to test and deploy new financial applications. The lender, with more than $100 billion in assets, is applying the tools to tokenized assets, cross-border settlement, and automated credit platforms. The move signals that Chainlink’s infrastructure is being adopted at scale inside regulated finance.

The focus is on equities and debt products, opening the door for blockchain-based issuance and settlement. SAB has already executed the world’s first Islamic repo on distributed ledger technology, in collaboration with Oumla earlier this year. That transaction gave regulators a template for compliant on-chain contracts. The Wamid deal builds directly on that precedent, shifting from single-instrument pilots toward broader capital markets integration.

Oumla is working with Avalanche to develop the Kingdom’s first domestically hosted Layer 1 blockchain. SAB’s Chainlink adoption adds an interoperability and execution layer on top. Together, these projects are shaping a domestic framework for tokenization, with global connectivity added only where liquidity requires it.
