The book includes chapters on what multi-bank financing is and who does it, relevant areas of law (including contract, torts, insolvency, tax, and statutes, such as the Bank Act), the mechanics of arranging loan syndications and loan participations, financial accommodation used (direct loans, bank guarantees, letters of credit, and bankers' acceptances), legal relations between parties in loan syndications and loan participations, rights and duties of the agent bank, securities regulation issues in loan syndications and loan participations, and accounting and tax issues in loan syndications and loan participations. Agasha Mugasha argues that loan syndications, loan participations, and related practices are commercial transactions between sophisticated parties and should be analysed and regulated as such. Sample documents for syndicated facility agreements, participation agreements, sale and participation agreements, and standby letters of credit are provided in appendices. Based on law in Canada, particularly Ontario, The Law of Multi-bank Financing includes discussions of a significant body of United States jurisprudence as well as the most important court decisions in other common-law countries.

This new work provides analysis of the legal and regulatory facets of syndicated loans, secondary loan market practice and other related financial practices. Acknowledging the dynamic growth in the secondary loan market Mugasha covers loan trading, credit derivatives, collateralised debt obligations, loan trading, mezzanine and hybrid debt solutions - all topical issues for structured finance lawyers. Practices have changed noticeably over recent years and Mugasha addresses new legalissues that have arisen. Firstly, there are new methods of conducting business, through electronic trading platforms, the internet and a wide range of information providers (Capital Data, LoanWare and rating agencies). Secondly, regulatory aspects have evolved and initiatives like Basel II and the Equator Principles 2003, and are examined, as are the roles of significant players such as the Loan Syndications and Trading Association and the Loan Market Association. As multi-bank financingremains a major instrument of commerce and finance in the national and international arenas and is notoriously complex, banking and corporate finance lawyers and in-house counsel at banks will value this practical text

The second edition of this acclaimed book continues to provide a discussion of key theoretical and policy issues in corporate finance law. Fully updated, it reflects developments in the law and the markets in the continuing aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis. One of its distinctive features is that it gives equal coverage to both the equity and debt sides of corporate finance law, and seeks, where possible, to compare the two. This book covers a broad range of topics regarding the debt and equity-raising choices of companies of all sizes, from SMEs to the largest publicly traded enterprises, and the mechanisms by which those providing capital are protected. Each chapter analyses the present law critically so as to enable the reader to understand the difficulties, risks and tensions in this area of law, and the attempts made by the legislature and the courts, as well as the parties involved, to deal with them. This book will be of interest to practitioners, academics and students engaged in the practice and study of corporate finance law.

This new major practitioner text provides an analysis of the legal issues that arise in, and the commercial and regulatory background of, international financing transactions. The work opens with an overview of the various methods of raising international finance set in the context of the legal and regulatory issues. The author covers ways in which a creditor may be protected against default considering security, quasi-security and guarantees. There is also a discussion of the content and structure of a loan agreement, examining each part of such an agreement in the context of the relevant legal principles. A chapter on syndicated lending follows the discussion of the loan agreement, setting out important theoretical and legal issues relevant to cases involving multi-bank financing. A substantial section of the work is given to an explanation of the conflicts of laws issues which may arise in an international transaction. In this section important aspects such as dispute resolution and sovereign/state immunity are covered in detail. The work concludes with guidance on matters relevant to specific areas of finance such as projects, derivatives and bonds and, finally, a discussion of the purpose and methods of loan transfers and securitization.

This acclaimed and comprehensive work analyses the legal issues involved in international finance transactions operating under English law. The second edition thoroughly updates the book to take account of major developments in regulation, practice, and case law since the first edition published in 2008. The most notable development in the intervening period has been the global financial crisis of 2008-9, whose effects have profoundly changed the nature of international finance, and the new edition has been updated by a team of expert editors and contributors to reflect the post-crisis legal framework of international transactions. The new edition covers the many significant changes to Bank Regulation which have occurred since 2008. Major developments in conflicts of laws and cross-border insolvency are addressed, including the consequences of the decision in Rubin v Eurofinance. This edition also takes account of major litigation in the sovereign debt field, significant developments in the loan markets, and recent challenges with the provision of legal opinions, including the increasing need to provide opinions in cross-border transactions. Developments in financing structures in the aftermath of the financial crisis are examined. Significant litigation in the derivatives field (partly as a response to the collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.) and amendments proposed by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association are also addressed. There is also coverage of further work on secured transactions following the Law Commission's and the City of London Law Society's Working Party's proposals. Providing detailed transaction-led analysis of all aspects of international finance practice, this work is a must-have reference source for all practitioners and academics working in the field.

In recent decades, the volume of EU legislation on financial law has increased exponentially. Banks, insurers, pension funds, investment firms and other financial institutions all are increasingly subject to European regulatory rules, as are day to day financial transactions. Serving as a comprehensive and authoritative introduction to European banking and financial law, the book is organized around the three economic themes that are central to the financial industry: (i) financial markets; (ii) financial institutions; and (iii) financial transactions. It covers not only regulatory law, but also commercial law that is relevant for the most important financial transactions. It also explains the most important international standard contracts such as LMA loan contracts and the GMRA repurchase agreements. Covering a broad range of aspects of financial law from a European perspective, it is essential reading for students of financial law and European regulation.
