Relending Facility
Relending Facility is a program to encourage foreign businessmen including end-users and dealers to purchase machinery and other manufactured goods of Taiwan. Basically it is a bank-to-bank arrangement through which this bank extends credit lines to local and foreign financial institutions who in turn relend funds to their clients for the purchase of machinery and other manufactured goods of Taiwan. Currently, a floating interest rate is applied to all eligible transactions under the Relending Facility Agreement. Any financial institutions interested in establishing a Relending Facility Agreement are welcome to send an application letter along with their annual reports for the past three years to us.
