Agrochemicals giant Syngenta Group Co. signed a $4.5 billion sustainability-linked loan, according to a company statement on Monday, in Asia’s largest such dollar facility this year.

The loan was upsized from an initial target of $3 billion following an over-subscription from a group of over 40 banks, including branches from mainland China and Singapore, said people familiar with the matter, asking not to be identified discussing private matters.
