Loan Programs and Facilities
Investor’s loan financing is primarily through short-term and long-term
loan programs in the Swedish and European capital markets.
Investor has both a Swedish and European Medium Term Note Program (MTN/EMTN), which are uncommitted loan programs intended for long-term financing. These programs are for SEK 10 bn. and EUR 5 bn, respectively. For shortterm financing Investor has an uncommitted Swedish and an uncommitted European Commercial Paper program (CP/ECP) for SEK 10 bn. and USD 1.5 bn., respectively. Investor also has a committed syndicated bank loan facility of SEK 10 bn. until October 2012, which can be used for financing and as a liquidity reserve. This facility was unutilized at year-end. In contrast to an uncommitted credit facility, a committed loan program is a formalized commitment from the credit grantor. There are no financial covenants to any of Investor AB’s loan contracts, meaning that Investor does not have to meet special requirements with regard to key financial ratios for the loans it has obtained.
