Documents & Guidelines

We endeavour to keep our documentation under constant review to ensure that it continues to meet the aims and needs of the primary and secondary loan markets.

Our documentation is produced after extensive consultation with leading loan practitioners and law firms so as to represent an agreed common view of documentation structures. Standardisation of the "boiler plate" areas of the documents allows lenders and borrowers to focus on the more important commercial aspects of individual transactions.

We are widely regarded as the body that establishes guidelines for the EMEA syndicated loan market. These are, by their nature, wide-ranging and relate to both primary and secondary markets.

LMA publishes multi-jurisdictional African facility agreement to assist investors with cross-border lending on the continent (24 June 2024)

On 24 June 2024, the LMA published a new USD Term SOFR loan agreement, governed by English law while assuming a variety of African borrowers/guarantors including Mauritius, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.

This aims to promote certainty for investors lending into Africa via the “Mauritian Holdco Structure”, whereby international investment is channelled into a Mauritian parent “Holdco” and “on-lent” to operating subsidiaries in the relevant African countries. Mauritius is popular due to a lack of foreign exchange controls, a strategic location, economic, political and legal stability, a raft of double tax treaties with other African countries and a skilled, bilingual workforce.

LMA publishes new guidance and revised documentation to support the export finance market (10 June 2024)

We are pleased to have published a new guidance note on untied ECA financing, updated buyer credit documentation, and a supporting statement from the LMA’s Export Finance Working Party.

Given the single currency nature of the buyer credit facility, there are now three variations of the buyer credit facility agreement:

We have also published a new term SONIA commentary. The User Guide has also been expanded to cover commonly discussed areas. The new guidance and revised documentation can be accessed on the Export Finance section of the Documents Index page.

LMA publishes guidance on documentary considerations when dealing with sovereign obligors (7 June 2024)

We are pleased to have published a guidance note which sets out documentary considerations when dealing with a sovereign borrower or guarantor. The guidance has been produced following demand from our members, partly driven by recent experiences in the market in respect of sovereign distress cases.

The guidance note is intended to be a helpful tool for lenders, investors, borrowers and advisers of the relevant considerations in the context of dealing with sovereign obligors (which includes for these purposes a state-owned entity).

The note can be found under the Issues and Guidance, Export Finance and Developing Markets sections of the Documents Index.

LMA publishes recommended form of extension option and users guide (21 May 2024)

On 21 May 2024, we are pleased to have published a form of drafting of an extension option for users of our recommended forms of facility agreements for investment grade transactions.

The intention of the extension option is to provide a position that broadly reflects general market practice for an extension option in a syndicated facility to a corporate borrower with an investment grade credit rating. As with all our recommended form documents, it is recognised that the negotiated terms of individual extension options can vary widely and the extension option seeks to provide a sensible starting point only. The users guide sets out the basis on which the extension option is drafted, as well as highlighting in a non-exhaustive manner some of the negotiation points which may arise.

LMA publishes South African law JIBAR rate switch agreement to assist with market transition to ZARONIA (9 May 2024)

On 9 May 2024, we are pleased to have published further South African law documentation to assist the loan market in transitioning away from JIBAR to compounded ZARONIA.

The Unsecured Single Currency Single Borrower Term and Revolving Facilities Agreement Incorporating Rate Switch Provisions (the “Exposure Draft SA Rate Switch Agreement”) provides for an in-built switch from JIBAR to a backward-looking compounded ZARONIA on the occurrence of specified trigger events. It includes mechanics and provisions for transition which are intended to mitigate the risk of a further amendment being required.
