Course NAME: Loans & Syndicated Credits

Course code:

Course Description

Despite the emergence of the Capital markets as the alternative source of finance, commercial banks and private equity companies (‘financiers’) remain the major source of funding for corporate borrowers in Kenya. Financiers negotiate on a daily basis numerous transactions in form of term loans, overdrafts, lines of credit and occasionally syndicated credits. The purpose of this course is to describe in detail the legal issues arising in term loans andsyndicated credits in the wholesale market in favour of corporate and governmental borrowers – not small or medium-sized private companies The objective is to help in the understanding of legal and commercial risks in the loan contract that would often lead to expensive litigation or arbitration if not properly identified and dealt with. This course targets in-house counsel (in state corporations, parastatals, semi autonomous government agencies, commercial banks, mortgage companies), transactors in corporate finance in commercial banks and mortgage companies, commercial legal practitioners, investment bankers, and private equity firms.

Course Name : Loans transfers and participations

Course code:

Course Description

This course describes aspects of the grant of participations by a lender to another bank (or non-bank entities) in a loan or other credit facility already entered into. Under the usual method of syndication, all the banks sign the loan agreement. But an original bank may wish to transfer a loan subsequently, e.g because there was no time to syndicate; because general syndication was prevented by the confidentiality required for a loan to finance a public takeover; to avoid over-exposure to a borrower; to diversify a loan portfolio; to make a profit out of trading loans, eg by retaining part of the margin; to remove assets which would attract a capital adequacy requirement so as to make room for more lending without having to raise fresh capital; to restructure the banking group by transferring loans to an affiliate; to transfer its assets to a more favourable tax jurisdiction; to enable a bank to transfer loans to a counterparty from whom the bank has bought credit protection in the credit derivatives market; to securitise loans; to transfer non-performing loans to a government agency or to a central bank to support a lender of last resort facility as part of a bank rescue operation; or to rid itself of distressed loans in favour of a specialist institution willing to spend time and expertise on recovery.

For all these reasons, the marketability of loans is essential, as with virtually all types of business property. A borrower may wish to restrict transfers in order to maintain its relationship with a particular bank.
