AirTrunk, a data center company owned by Blackstone, secures a $2.3 billion green loan from a syndicate of 30 lenders for a new data center facility in Malaysia, according to multiple reports. The facility is located in Johor. The financing is described as AirTrunk’s largest funding for a single asset to date. The reporting characterizes the loan as “green,” indicating it is tied to environmental or sustainability criteria, though the specific requirements are not detailed in the available summaries.
In a separate development related to Malaysia’s data center market, Free Malaysia Today also notes consolidation activity involving competitors. The outlet reports that Vantage is considering a potential sale of its Malaysian assets worth around $2 billion, as the sector consolidates. While that second item is not linked directly to AirTrunk’s loan in the summaries, it is presented as part of broader market moves occurring in Malaysia’s data center industry.
