Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy Clause Samples
The "Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy" clause allows a lender or financial institution to adjust the terms of a loan or financing agreement if regulatory changes or other external factors increase their costs or reduce their expected returns. For example, if new capital adequacy requirements force the lender to hold more capital or incur additional expenses, the lender can require the borrower to compensate for these increased costs, often through higher interest rates or additional fees. This clause ensures that lenders are protected from unforeseen regulatory or market changes that could negatively impact their profitability, thereby maintaining the economic balance of the agreement.
