The Committee of Creditors of Oltchim is being summoned on Wednesday, to approve the sale of Ramplast, the maker of PVC profiles owned by Oltchim. Lawyer Gheorghe Piperea, one of the receivers of Oltchim, told us: "We have a buyer for Ramplast and we have a bid. The buyer is a Romanian company that has a market in Ukraine and Moldova. The creditors have to approve the transaction. The money will have to be used for the production process, as CEC Bank announce that announced that it will not grant a new loan to Oltchim. Thus, in the banking sector, what we have left is the financing from Piraeus Bank and from Banca Transilvania. The loan briefs have been completed and we are awaiting for the final agreement of the two banks".
In his opinion it is estimated that the report on the appraisal of the assets of Oltchim will be ready this week. This report, which is important in the process for the privatization of Oltchim, will be put up for approval of the Committee of Creditors, and then Oltchim 2 (a special purpose vehicle) will be set up. Gheorghe Piperea, as well as the Minister of the Economy expect the creation of Oltchim 2 to happen between September 20th-September 30th, by.
Most likely, the end of September will be the deadline for investors interested in Oltchim to submit their bids.
