The Loan Account Agreement is a fundamental banking document used in Switzerland when establishing a credit facility with an associated operational account structure. This agreement is essential when a borrower requires ongoing access to credit facilities while maintaining operational banking services. The document combines elements of traditional loan documentation with account operation provisions, all compliant with Swiss banking regulations and the Swiss Code of Obligations. It is particularly relevant for business lending relationships where the borrower needs both credit facilities and transaction banking services.
