The Revolving Credit Agreement is a fundamental financing document used in Qatar's banking sector to provide flexible financing solutions to businesses and individuals. It establishes a credit facility where the borrower can repeatedly draw down funds up to an agreed limit, repay them, and reborrow during the facility period. This type of agreement is particularly valuable in Qatar's dynamic business environment, where companies require flexible working capital solutions. The document must comply with Qatar Central Bank regulations, the Qatar Commercial Code, and other relevant local laws. It typically includes detailed provisions on facility mechanics, conditions precedent, representations and warranties, covenants, and events of default. For larger facilities, it may involve multiple lenders in a syndicated structure, and depending on the parties' requirements, may need to incorporate Shariah-compliant elements common in Qatar's banking sector.
