Brookfield Asset Management is negotiating with banks to refinance a $700 million loan that funded its purchase of an office tower in Shanghai five years ago, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The Canada-based asset manager purchased the property from Greenland Hong Kong (HKG:0337) in 2019, and the loan is due before the end of the year, according to the report.
The new package could reach more than $900 million, the report said.
Brookfield also snagged 1.96 billion yuan in a 15-year onshore loan from Bank of China (HKG:3988, SHA:601988) with an annual interest rate of 4%, the report said.
