Debt syndication is an arrangement made between two or more banks/financial institutions to provide the borrower a credit facility using common debt documents. Debt syndication is the process of dispensing the money advanced in, generally a large loan, to a number of enterprises or investors. It is general to use debt syndication when the loan required, in order to fund a company or set aside a company from bankruptcy. by employing debt syndication, several banks, investment firms or other companies share both the profits and the risk of making a large loan. A decline in the number of available lenders has complicated debt syndication. While banks are regularly the primary lenders, they can be involved in deals with less outlay, thus reducing their risk. banks are likely to employ debt syndication, because they are more watchful about taking on more risky investments. In fact banks may advance little money but act more as the principals in arranging a deal between several investors.
