International Lending

This subject involves the study and analysis of the structure, purpose and key provisions of market standard cross border lending documentation, including large syndicated credit agreements (governed by New York or English law). Students will focus on anticipating potential concerns and tensions in the negotiation process and will have the chance to review and study the key agreements and documents such as the credit agreement, guaranties, other ancillary documents, schedules, and document deliveries that they will encounter in practice. Students will also study the structure and standard documents used in the cross-border repo market and the securities lending market, two important international capital markets.
