SEOUL (Reuters) - Korean Air Lines 003490.KS, the biggest shareholder of Hanjin Shipping 117930.KS, has approved a plan to provide a loan of 60 billion won ($54.16 million) to the troubled shipper.

The support will be offered on condition of securing Hanjin Shipping’s Long Beach Terminal as collateral, Korean Air said.

Hanjin Group has pledged to raise a total of 100 billion won ($90 million) in funds to help rescue cargo that is stranded at sea following the failure of Hanjin Shipping, the world’s seventh-largest container carrier.

Out of the 100 billion won, Hanjin Group Chairman Cho Yang-ho will raise 40 billion won from private funds next week.
