What is a Non Interest Bearing Loan Agreement?

It is commonly used in related-party transactions, family loans, director loans to companies, and various commercial contexts where interest-free lending is appropriate or advantageous.

It includes comprehensive provisions for loan terms, repayment schedules, security arrangements (if any), and default mechanisms, while maintaining the interest-free nature of the transaction. This agreement is particularly valuable for documenting loans between related entities, family members, or in situations where charging interest may have unfavorable tax or commercial implications.
