A government working group, established by order of the Prime Minister of Mongolia, convened yesterday to discuss financing terms of the Oyu Tolgoi project.

The meeting reviewed measures taken to reduce shareholder loan interest rates in line with market principles, their outcomes, and upcoming action plans. It was agreed to negotiate with the investor side on revising loan interest conditions and reconsidering the clause that limits such discussions to once every seven years.

Finance Minister B. Javkhlan, who chairs the working group, underlined that Rio Tinto representatives should be directly involved in the negotiations on lowering the shareholder loan interest rates.
