In early 2014, the Eximbank of India signed a loan agreement including requirements to source from India with the Republic of Congo.
On 9 March 2014, the Government of India agreed to provide a loan of USD 89.90 million to the Government of Congo for financing machinery, equipment, goods and services to develop a transportation system in Congo.

The credit is provided by the Export Import Bank of India (EXIM) and requires that at least 75% of the contract price for goods and services associated with the project is sourced from India.

The credit agreement came into force on 8 August 2014.
