A Share Lending Agreement is a critical financial instrument used to facilitate various market activities, including short selling, settlement coverage, and market making. This agreement, governed by Belgian law and EU regulations, provides a legally robust framework for temporary transfer of shares between institutional parties. It includes detailed provisions for collateral management, corporate actions, regulatory compliance, and operational procedures. The document is particularly important in the Belgian market context, where it must comply with both local financial regulations and broader EU requirements such as SFTR and MAR. The agreement is typically used by financial institutions, investment firms, and institutional investors engaging in securities financing transactions, and includes comprehensive risk management and regulatory reporting provisions.
