Amendments, waivers and consents


This overview is a guide to the Banking & Finance content within the Amendments, waivers and consents subtopic, with links to appropriate materials.

During the term of a facility, the borrower's financial position is likely to fluctuate or its business plans change. This may cause the borrower to want to revisit the terms of the finance documents. In some cases the borrower might want a permanent change to the terms of the finance documents. In others, the borrower will only need a temporary variation or a consent to do something prohibited by the finance documents.

What is the difference between amendments, waivers and consents?

At a basic level, any variation from the terms of a facility agreement will need an amendment, waiver or consent by the lender(s).

High Court confirms broad government discretion in UK national security reviews

Competition analysis: In this judgment, the High Court issued its first ever ruling on a challenge to an unwinding order imposed by the UK government under the National Security and Investment Act 2021 (NSIA 2021). In a clear victory for the government, the court confirmed the broad discretion of the Secretary of State to determine the appropriate remedy for resolving national security concerns arising from a problematic transaction, up to and including forced divestment of the acquirer鈥檚 shareholding in a qualifying entity, as well confirming that the overall process followed by the Government in such cases is fair and proportionate. The judgment is also notable for the insights that it provides into the process followed by Government officials and ministers for in-depth reviews under the NSIA 2021, with the level of detail going well beyond what has been disclosed in the Government鈥檚 own guidance to date.
