The External Commercial Borrowing (ECB) facility has been jointly arranged by Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) and CTBC Bank, the statement from the company formerly known as Fullerton India Credit, said.

It can be noted that a slew of its peers have been accessing funds through the ECB route over the last few months even if they come at a higher cost, as arranging funds from domestic banks become difficult amid regulatory changes and slower deposit growth.
