The Loan Guarantee Agreement is a crucial financial instrument in Austrian business practice, commonly used when a third party (guarantor) agrees to secure the loan obligations of a borrower. This document type is essential in various financing scenarios, from corporate lending to real estate transactions, and must comply with Austrian legal requirements, particularly the ABGB and banking regulations. The agreement details the scope of the guarantee, enforcement mechanisms, and parties' rights and obligations. It's particularly important to note that Austrian law distinguishes between abstract guarantees (Garantie) and accessory guarantees (Bürgschaft), which affects the guarantor's obligations and available defenses. The document includes specific provisions required by Austrian law regarding form, content, and execution, and may need additional provisions if the guarantor is a consumer under the Consumer Protection Act (KSchG).
