The joint lead arrangers for the programme are CIMB Investment Bank Berhad and Standard Chartered Bank Malaysia Berhad whilst the co-lead manager is RHB Islamic Bank Berhad. The legal counsel for the transaction is Zaid Ibrahim & Co.

Following the signing of the programme documents by IDB, a 2-day road show was recently conducted along with an investor presentation in Kuala Lumpur, which was attended by representatives of public and private institutions' investors.
