The Framework Loan Agreement is designed for situations where parties anticipate an ongoing lending relationship with multiple loan disbursements over time. This contract type is particularly useful for businesses requiring regular access to credit without the administrative burden of negotiating separate loan agreements for each drawdown. Under Swiss law, the agreement must comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations and, where applicable, Swiss banking regulations and consumer protection laws. The document typically includes comprehensive terms covering facility limits, drawdown mechanics, interest calculations, security arrangements, and covenant packages. It's commonly used in corporate financing, real estate development, and general commercial lending, providing a flexible but structured approach to ongoing credit relationships.
