In this edition of EUF Industry Terminology, we explore "Asset based lending (ABL)". An agreement between a business (Client) and a financial company in which the latter provides the Client with a structured facility combining secured loans and revolving credits. The Client may pledge/assign as collateral any combination of assets used in the conduct of its business (e.g. Receivables, stocks, plant & machinery, property, brands, etc.). ABL facilities are generally complex structures combining revolving credit lines based on current assets with amortizing loans based on fixed assets. ABL is accordingly used for bigger clients, typically in a restructuring or MBO situation. Syndication between ABL companies for very large facilities is very common. 🔁 Translations: French - Asset Based Lending (ABL) German - Asset Based Lending (ABL – vermögensbasiertes Kreditgeschäft) Greek - Δανεισμός Έναντι Περιουσιακών Στοιχείων (ΔΕΠΣ) Italian - Asset Based Lending (ABL) Polish - Finansowanie oparte na aktywach: wierzytelności, zapasy, maszyny i urządzenia, znaki towarowe itp.

Topic:Regulatory Authorities/ Governing bodies of Loan syndication process. ⏩LSTA & LMA ⏩ Both the Loan Syndications and Trading Association, Inc. (the “LSTA”) and the Loan Market Association (the “LMA”) publish the forms of documentation used by sophisticated financial entities involved in the trading of large corporate syndicated loans in the secondary trading market. ⏩The LSTA based in New York was founded in 1995. The LMA based in London was formed in 1996. Both the LSTA and LMA share the common aim of assisting in developing best practices and standard documentation to facilitate the growth and liquidity of efficient trading of syndicated corporate loans. Over the past two decades, the use of these secondary trading forms has become widespread and customary by market participants. ⏩if the credit agreement is based on law of the United Kingdom or another European jurisdiction, LMA documentation will be typically utilised. On the contrary, where the governing law of the applicable credit agreement is New York law or of another jurisdiction within the United States, usually LSTA documentation will be utilised. LMA documents are governed by English law whereas LSTA documents are governed by the laws of New York. ⏩The one material exception under both LSTA and LMA pricing conventions provides for the seller to retain the right to any accrued and unpaid interest on performing loans for the period of time up to (i) seven (7) business days after trade date (“T+7”) for LSTA par trades or ten (10) business days after trade date (“T+10”) for LMA par trades, or (ii) twenty (20) business days after trade date (“T+20”) for both LSTA and LMA distressed trades. ⏩Asia Pacific Loan Market Association: The APLMA is a professional (not-for-profit) trade association which represents the interests of institutions active in the syndicated loan markets around the Asia-Pacific region. Its primary objective is to promote growth and liquidity in the syndicated loan markets (both primary and secondary) – which it endeavours to do by advocating best market standards and practices. #Loansyndication #SyndicatedLending #Loanofficers #LoanSyndicationExperts #LoanMarket #AsiaPacificFinance #FinancialAnalysts #CreditAnalysts #InvestmentBankers

Certainly! Let's dive deeper into the essential aspects of following PT Sparta Duta Perkasa's Icumsa 45 purchasing standards. Here's an extended version of the paragraph: --- 🌟 **Attention, Valued Buyer!** At PT Sparta Duta Perkasa, we understand that successful transactions rely on adherence to clear guidelines. Allow us to elaborate on the critical points you need to consider: 1. **Publication of SBLC Payment Methods**: - Transparency is our cornerstone. By publishing your Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC) payment methods, we create a level playing field. This transparency ensures that both parties understand the terms and expectations. - Imagine a well-lit path through the forest – it guides us toward a successful deal. When you follow our rules and disclose your payment methods, it's akin to illuminating that path. 2. **The RWA Factor**: - Ready, Willing, and Able (RWA) – these three words hold immense weight. An RWA confirmation from a top 50 bank is more than a formality; it's a testament to your commitment. - Think of it as a handshake across continents. When you provide an RWA, you assure us that you're not just interested but fully prepared to proceed. It's the foundation of trust. 3. **Instrument Payment: Non-Negotiable**: - An instrument payment – be it an SBLC or another financial instrument – is non-negotiable. It's the heartbeat of our due diligence process. - Picture a bridge connecting two islands. Without a sturdy bridge, the journey becomes treacherous. Similarly, without a confirmed instrument, the transaction lacks stability. 4. **Avoiding Pitfalls**: - We've encountered situations where buyers deviate from our standard procedures. Some insist on spot purchases instead of annual contracts, while others overlook minor corrections. - These deviations can lead to cancellations. Imagine a puzzle missing a crucial piece – it remains incomplete. Let's avoid such pitfalls. 5. **Contact Us**: - Have questions? Need clarification? Reach out to us at +62 812 7551 3746 or via email at ptspartadutaperkasa@gmail.com. - We're here to guide you, ensuring a successful partnership. Remember, every detail matters. Let's build a bridge of trust together – one that spans oceans and connects opportunities. 🌴🤝🌟 --- *

Contrasting LMA and LSTA Documents In the realm of loan syndication, clarity and alignment are paramount, and it all starts with the right documentation. Let's explore the distinctions between two essential frameworks: the LMA (Loan Market Association) and LSTA (Loan Syndications and Trading Association) documents: 🌍 Geographical Focus: LMA Document: Primarily tailored for European markets, reflecting the legal and market practices of the UK and Europe. LSTA Document: Designed with a focus on the United States, aligning with U.S. laws, regulations, and market standards. ⚖️ Legal Framework: LMA Document: Governed by English law, incorporating European legal principles and standards. LSTA Document: Typically governed by New York law, reflecting the legal landscape of the United States. 🏢 Market Practices: LMA Document: Reflects European market practices and regulatory requirements. LSTA Document: Tailored to accommodate U.S. market practices and preferences. 📝 Documentation Style: LMA Document: Adopts European legal and financial terminology. LSTA Document: Incorporates language commonly used in American loan documentation. 💼 Industry Influence: LMA Document: Shaped by European financial institutions, legal firms, and regulatory bodies. LSTA Document: Reflects input and collaboration from U.S.-based financial institutions and legal experts within the LSTA. Understanding these nuances is essential for navigating the complexities of loan syndication effectively. Whether operating in European or U.S. markets, choosing the right document ensures clarity, compliance, and alignment of interests for all parties involved. Let's continue to deepen our understanding of loan syndication and empower ourselves to make informed decisions in the ever-evolving world of finance. #LoanSyndication #LMA #LSTA #FinanceInsights #GlobalFinance 📜💼💡

International Finance: Leveraging SBLCs for Global Success Hey everyone! I wanted to share a current deal we are working on that highlights the impact of Standby Letters of Credit (SBLCs) in international business. A few weeks ago, we received a referral for a client based in the U.S. who secured a significant contract with a firm in Europe. As many of you know, international business can be complex, particularly when it comes to securing the necessary capital. We’re currently in conversations with this client about why an SBLC might be a great fit for their needs and exploring other potential options. Here are 4 key benefits of SBLCs that we're discussing: 1. Risk Mitigation: An SBLC guarantees payment, ensuring that the seller receives their funds even if the buyer encounters issues. This reduces the risks associated with international transactions. 2. Increased Trust and Reliability: By securing an SBLC, both parties—buyer and seller—can proceed with confidence, knowing that the agreed-upon terms will be met. This fosters stronger business relationships, especially in new markets. 3. Contractual Security: SBLCs create a binding promise between parties. Even if the buyer defaults, the SBLC ensures that the seller still gets paid, providing a strong foundation for international trade. 4. Facilitating Market Expansion: Whether you're a large corporation or a smaller business looking to expand, SBLCs offer the financial security needed to enter new markets and scale operations globally. Our client, poised to move forward with their European contract, is now considering how an SBLC could provide the necessary capital and security to ensure success. As we continue our discussions, we’re also exploring other financing options to find the best fit for their situation. As I grow deeper into the world of international finance, I’m excited to share more deals and lessons like this one. SBLCs are a powerful tool, and I believe they can unlock incredible opportunities for businesses aiming to operate on a global scale. If you’re curious about how SBLCs or other financing tools could benefit your business, feel free to reach out or drop a comment below. #InternationalBusiness #TradeFinance #SBLC #GlobalExpansion #FinanceTools #BusinessGrowth
