“For the Juwi Group, the signing of the syndicated loan is a key financial component of the company's business,” said Sascha Röber, Juwi's head of corporate finance.

“It is a visible act of faith from the financial world which cannot be valued highly enough against the backdrop of the problems of many other companies, especially in the solar sector.”

The German company has pledged to continue its spread into other overseas markets, particularly in North America.
