SECN 8.2 Granting of credit

SECN 8.2.1R

1Originators, sponsors and original lenders shall apply to exposures to be securitised (unless they are trade receivables not originated in the form of a loan) the same sound and well-defined criteria for credit-granting which they apply to non-securitised exposures. To that end, the same clearly established processes for approving and (where relevant) amending, renewing and refinancing credits shall be applied.

SECN 8.2.2R

1Originators, sponsors and original lenders shall have effective systems in place to apply those criteria and processes in order to ensure credit-granting is based on a thorough assessment of the obligor’s creditworthiness taking appropriate account of factors relevant to verifying the prospect of the obligor meeting the obligor’s obligations under the credit agreement.
