Background & analysis
According to a Sina Finance report cited on November 2, 2026, global investment firm Brookfield has appointed KB National Bank as lead arranger for what would be the largest syndicated loan in South Korea's history. The facility is valued at KRW 10.7 trillion (about USD 8 billion), and the proceeds are designated for purchasing AI compute infrastructure, including GPUs. At this point, the only publicly available details concern the appointment and the loan size. There are no reports yet on closing or on funds actually being deployed for procurement, so the matter remains at the syndication stage.
