Abu Dhabi’s sovereign wealth fund ADQ is close to securing a $4 billion syndicated loan, primarily from lenders based in Greater China, in the latest Middle East deal tapping Asian bank liquidity.

The loan has mainly attracted banks in China, Macau and Taiwan, according to people familiar with the matter. A representative for ADQ declined to comment.
