MIGA recently closed its second transaction supporting a project with an Islamic financing structure—the first was for a port project in Djibouti back in 2007. For this new project, MIGA provided political risk insurance to two financial institutions, Deutsche Bank Luxembourg and Saudi British Bank, for their $450 million financing to the Indonesia telecoms company PT Natrindon Telepon Selular, or NTS.The company is majority-owned by Saudi Telecom, and the deal formed part of an overall $1.2 billion financing to help NTS greatly expand its GSM network in Indonesia.
