State Bank of India (SBI), the country’s largest public sector lender will be raising funds to the tune of up to $600 million through an external commercial borrowing (ECB) from corporates. The amount will get raised in the next three to four month.
Last week the country’s largest lender raised $1 billion through an international bond sale at a competitive coupon of 3.25% and the money will be deployed to fund clients’ overseas requirements.
