The Facilities Agreement serves as the primary document governing the provision of financial facilities in New Zealand, typically used for corporate lending, project finance, or general corporate purposes. It establishes a legally binding relationship between the lender(s) and borrower(s), detailing all aspects of the facility including amount, purpose, conditions, representations, covenants, and security arrangements. The agreement must comply with New Zealand banking and financial services regulations, including the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, and other relevant legislation. It's essential for documenting significant financial transactions and provides certainty and protection for all parties involved in the lending arrangement.
