Defaulting Bank Clause Examples
The defaulting-bank clause defines the rights and remedies available when a bank involved in a financial transaction fails to meet its obligations, such as making required payments or delivering collateral. In practice, this clause typically outlines the steps that can be taken against the defaulting bank, which may include suspending its participation, terminating agreements, or triggering close-out netting provisions. Its core function is to protect the non-defaulting parties by providing a clear process for managing the risks and consequences associated with a bank's default, thereby ensuring stability and predictability in financial arrangements.
