What is a Loan Participation Agreement?
A loan participation agreement is an agreement between a lender (lead lender) and a party who purchases an interest in an underlying loan (participant). In this agreement, the lead lender maintains control over the loan and manages the relationship with the borrower. The lead lender is responsible for originating the loan, communicating with the borrower, and servicing the loan. The lead lender accepts payments from the borrower, initiates collection actions, and forecloses on the loan collateral in the event of a default. Participants are not permitted to make claims against the borrower and can only request reimbursement for their participation from the lead lender.
