Hamburg Commercial Bank facilitates fleet modernisation
Project details
The US $50 million financing enabled MPC Container Ships ASA to renew its fleet with modern vessels in a single transaction. The five eco-designed vessels were, on average, five years old at the time of purchase and improved the company’s carbon footprint. The financing was characterised by a flexible structure and rapid turnaround time, enabling MPCC to capitalise on an attractive opportunity.
