Borrowers often assume that they have limited influence on the outcome of negotiating terms within loan agreement with the lenders. They generally feel that lenders do not understand the perspectives of borrowers nor feel the need to amend clauses of loan agreements by default. This however is not true, as parties involved in the negotiating process more than often propose significant reasons, be it due to financial or corporate considerations that prove difficult to ignore and often find a compromised acceptability with the lenders eventually. Hence pre-contract preparations and strategic negotiations are essential in shaping the overall loan agreement outcome.


This 2-part webinar will provide delegates with a comprehensive overview of key legal and commercial issues to be considered when negotiating loan agreements from the viewpoint of both lender and borrower.

  • Learn about the different types of security that will be applied 
  • Consider a loan agreement from the perspective of both a lender and a borrower

  • In-house lawyers in banks and financial institutions
  • In house personnel who deal with drafting or negotiating loan agreements
  • Bankers concerned with the negotiation of loans
  • Bank executive involved in the documentation of loans

Testimonials

From the previous course delivered by Arun Singh OBE

  • “He has excellent communication skills and extensive international experience to share as well as real world situations”

  • “Arun conducted the course well blending theory and practical needs” 
  • “I found Arun to be open and engaging, which helped the participants feel comfortable to ask questions and participate in sharing.  I felt that this made the session more enriching and facilitated the discussion”
  • “Always pleased to take questions and gives relevant examples with his answers and useful workable advice on drafting”
