Film Guarantee Fund approves new loan gurantee

*

The Film Guarantee Fund has approved its latest loan guarantee of $2.625 million to Mandarin Films Limited for its film project "Dragon Tiger Gate", the ninth approval since the fund was launched in April 2003.

 

Citic Ka Wah Bank Limited agreed to provide a facility of $5.25 million to this film project, while the fund will guarantee 50% of the loan. At present, the total commitment of the Fund for film production projects has amounted to around $11.75 million.

 

The Film Guarantee Fund provides loan guarantees to local lending institutions that offers loan facilities to film productions that have secured a film completion arrangement. The maximum loan guarantee for each film is 35% of the production budget or $2.625 million, whichever is less.

 

All film production companies registered locally that have produced at least two films in the past 10 years for commercial release in Hong Kong before applying for guarantee under the scheme are eligible to apply for a guarantee.

 

Application forms for the fund can be obtained from the Film Services Office, 40/F Revenue Tower, 5 Gloucester Road, Wan Chai, or downloaded from www.fso-tela.gov.hk. Enquiries can be made on 2594 5729 or 2594 5726, or via email info@fso-tela.gov.hk.
