С точки зрения заемщика, приемлемые уровни финансовых ковенант позволяют реализовать сделку с комфортными для дальнейшего выполнения условиями. Для кредиторов приемлемый уровень финансовых ковенант важен для получения внутреннего кредитного одобрения участия в сделке и как инструмент мониторинга кредитного качества заемщика при обслуживании синдицированного кредита. К основным финансовым ковенантам сделок синдицированного кредитования относятся ограничения на следующие финансовые коэффициенты заемщика: чистый долг/EBITDA, чистые процентные платежи/EBITDA, чистый долг/акционерный капитал. Кредиторы осуществляют мониторинг финансовых ковенант посредством сертификата соответствия, который заемщик регулярно направляет агенту по кредиту. Одну из ключевых ролей в сделках синдицированного кредитования выполняет агент по кредиту, через которого осуществляются коммуникации между заемщиком и кредиторами. В случае нарушения заемщиком финансовых ковенант запускается процесс получения согласия кредиторов на разовый отказ от соответствующих прав (Waiver Request) или на внесение изменений в кредитный договор (Amendment Request). В статье рассмотрены основные этапы данных процессов с указанием функций участников данных процессов (заемщик, агент по кредиту, кредиторы, юридический консультант).</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>   The article analyzes the use of financial covenants in international syndicated lending transactions. From a borrower’s point of view, acceptable levels of financial covenants allow to realize the transaction with comfortable conditions for further fulfillment. For lenders, an acceptable level of financial covenants is important for obtaining internal credit approval for participation in the transaction and as a tool for monitoring the credit quality of a borrower when servicing a syndicated loan. The main financial covenants of syndicated loan transactions include restrictions on the following financial ratios of a borrower: net debt/EBITDA, net interest payments/EBITDA, and net debt/equity. Lenders monitor financial covenants through a compliance certificate that a borrower sends to the lending agent on a regular basis. One of the key roles in syndicated lending transactions is played by a loan agent, through whom communications between a borrower and lenders take place. If a borrower violates the financial covenants, the process of obtaining lenders’ consent to a one-time waiver (Waiver Request) or amendment of the loan agreement (Amendment Request) is initiated. The article discusses the main stages of these processes with an indication of the participants’ roles in these processes (borrower, loan agent, lenders, and legal counsel).</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>синдицированное кредитование</kwd><kwd>финансовые ковенанты</kwd><kwd>юридические консультанты</kwd><kwd>агент по кредиту</kwd><kwd>инвестиционно-банковские услуги</kwd><kwd>кредитная документация</kwd><kwd>международные рынки капитала</kwd><kwd>процесс синдикации</kwd><kwd>привлечение корпоративного финансирования</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>syndicated lending</kwd><kwd>financial covenants</kwd><kwd>legal counsels</kwd><kwd>facility agent</kwd><kwd>investment banking services</kwd><kwd>loan documentation</kwd><kwd>international capital markets</kwd><kwd>syndication process</kwd><kwd>raising corporate finance</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Белова Е.Ю., Шевченко М.О.
