Search our vast library of industry-approved loan market documentation in both static and automated forms.
Our documents are generally available only in Word format, except for the LMA User Guides and markup versions which are only available in PDF format.
All new/updated versions of documents posted to the LMA website are also, if relevant, accompanied by markups clearly showing the changes since the last version(s) published. Both new/updated documents and associated markups can be found in the download section, adjacent to each document.
Select LMA documents are available to academic organisations or to students and lecturers for other academic purposes. For more information, contact the LMA on lmadocs@lma.eu.com. Otherwise LMA documents are available to members only.
All requests for historic documents must be made by existing members to lmadocs@lma.eu.com. Any historic documents requested will only be made available to members at a cost of £250 per document.
Please note that the LMA provides no guarantee that all historic copies of previously published documents are available.
There are two versions of LMA.Automate you can access as a member of the LMA – both the ‘free’ and the ‘premium’ version.
The 'free version' of LMA.Automate is incorporated alongside the full suite of static documents and may be accessed via the LMA Documentation Hub. If a particular document can be generated via LMA.Automate, this will be clearly illustrated via an LMA.Automate icon next to the document in question. Members will then be taken, via a secure website link, to an online questionnaire, enabling them to generate and download a document based on the answers selected.
Functionality will be limited to document generation – i.e. unlike the premium version of the service, there is no ability to edit, self-automate, convert to house style, reverse engineer the questionnaire, store the document, track version history, review an audit trail, collaborate or negotiate a live document or extract or analyse data. This ‘premium’ LMA.Automate functionality will only be available to LMA.Automate subscribers (i.e. as is the case now) as will bespoke, dedicated platform support.
The LMA.Automate questionnaire is an interactive tool designed to streamline the creation of facility agreements with an enhanced ranged of drafting options.
Filling in the Fields:
It should be noted that no personal data will be requested or can be included in the questionnaire. The document will also not be stored on any internal systems of the LMA.
If you have additional questions or need support using the LMA.Automate questionnaire, please contact the LMA documentation support team at lmadocs@lma.eu.com.

LMA.Automate premium version:
The following pre-automated LMA templates are available to members via the LMA Documentation Hub:
The corporate lending facility agreement is not available as a static document on the LMA Documentation Hub and is a hybrid document incorporating both investment grade and leveraged features to accommodate a broad range of corporate lending scenarios.
The static version of the bilateral facility agreement is not available as a static document on LMA Documentation Hub. It has been produced to provide a bilateral facility structure (i.e. stripping out syndicated language from the LMA syndicated template) and to cover a wide range of potential corporate lending situations (including acquisition).
Yes – once we update our global static LMA templates, we will strive to ensure that these changes are reflected within the templates available on LMA.Automate.
