The Syndicated Loan Agreement is a sophisticated financing document used when a borrower requires substantial funding that exceeds the capacity or risk appetite of a single lender. This agreement, governed by UAE law, brings together multiple financial institutions to provide financing while sharing the associated risks. The document must comply with UAE banking regulations, including UAE Central Bank requirements and the UAE Civil Code. It contains detailed provisions covering facility terms, security arrangements, representations, covenants, and events of default. When used in the UAE market, the Syndicated Loan Agreement often needs to consider both conventional and Islamic finance principles, particularly in transactions involving local banks. The agreement serves as the primary document governing the relationship between the borrower and the lending syndicate, establishing clear rights, obligations, and procedures for all parties involved.
