ME AI News: Indonesian AI infrastructure platform Zankore signed a $3.1 billion loan agreement on Wednesday to purchase advanced chips, supported by NVIDIA, highlighting the surging demand for computing power in Asia. According to Zankore’s statement, Citigroup, ING, Natixis, Qatar National Bank, and UOB underwrote the loan, one of Asia’s largest AI infrastructure financings to date. Citigroup served as the sole debt advisor for the transaction. GPU financing is becoming the next frontier for AI lenders, as banks and private credit firms move beyond data centers to focus on the hardware that powers them. In Asia, bank-led deals have been scarce due to uncertainties around chip residual values and geopolitical risks stemming from U.S.-China technological competition. (FinSect) (Source: MLion)
