ITOCHU Still Responsible for Interest Bearing LoanIf you read the news release carefully, IVN is funding continued development through an interest bearing loan to Ivanplats. Which means Ivanplats must repay the loan to IVN. In other words, ITOCHU, through their 10% interest in Ivanplats has incurred debt instead of spending additional cash up front. They have not in any way quit the project. It just demonstrates how much cash IVN has available, that it can afford to lend money to junior partners.
