Defaulting lender
From ACT Wiki
Borrowing and lending - documentation.
The concept of a defaulting lender is an element of borrowing and lending documentation, designed for the protection of the borrower.
It includes situations in which the lender fails to honour its commitment to provide funds under borrowing documentation, or gives notice that it will do so, or becomes insolvent.
When a lender becomes a defaulting lender under the borrowing documentation, the borrower enjoys additional rights to protect its position as borrower.
Defaulting lender provisions are part of Lehman provisions.
