Providing a term sheet to potential participants in a syndicated credit transaction is an established and important part of the primary syndication phase of any business. However, the lack of content consistency and sufficient content negatively affects an investor`s ability to adequately analyze risks at an important stage of the investment decision-making process. Based on feedback from their respective working groups, LMA and ELFA have partnered with the investor community and specialized audit providers to create a list of provisions essential to investors` investment decisions. These provisions are clearly set out in this Best Practice Guide and the AML and ELFA strongly recommend a detailed description of these provisions in the first draft of the term sheet.
