The trust our financial partners place in BGN’s growth story was reaffirmed this week in Amsterdam when, together with the Abu Dhabi Exports Office (ADEX) and our syndicate of leading partner banks, we won the award for Export-Backed Finance Deal of the Year at TXF Amsterdam 2025: Global Natural Resources and Commodities Finance. The award highlights the successful expansion of our revolving credit facility (RCF) to $232.5 million.
This recognition underscores the strength of our financial partnerships and reaffirms BGN’s ongoing commitment to responsible growth and operational excellence in global energy and commodity trading.
Ruya Bayegan, Group CEO of BGN, commented:
“This award is a testament to our unwavering commitment to trust, transparency, and resilience. In today’s complex trading environment, reputation and credibility in the financial sector are not optional—they are foundational. They are the bedrock upon which sustainable and successful trading, shipping, and production are built.”
At the award event, Fayzal Tazi, Finance Director for MENA & APAC, shared insights on BGN’s vertical integration strategy, highlighting investments in Very Large Gas Carriers (VLGCs) as a key driver of our asset-backed expansion.
Okan Dalanay, Director of Financial Origination, contributed to the event “Navigating Risk: Spotlight on Insurance,” addressing how financial institutions – and trading companies like BGN – are adapting to support evolving and dynamic market models. BGN CFO, Rui Florencio, and Fayzal Tazi accepted the award on behalf of BGN and our credit lenders.
We extend our most profound appreciation to our banking partners:
First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank (ADCB), National Bank of Fujairah, Commercial Bank of Dubai, Mashreqbank, Arab Bank, National Bank of Ras Al Khaimah, Emirates NBD, and Ajman Bank.
Your continued support plays a vital role in our journey forward.
