The Loan Termination Letter is a critical document used when a loan facility has been fully repaid or otherwise settled, and both parties wish to formally conclude their lending relationship. Under Nigerian law, particularly in compliance with BOFIA 2020 and banking regulations, this document serves as official confirmation that all loan obligations have been satisfied and that the borrower is released from further commitments. It typically follows full repayment of the loan or an agreed settlement and should include specific references to the original loan agreement, confirmation of settlement, and release of any securities. The letter provides legal certainty for both parties and helps prevent future disputes regarding the loan's status. This document is particularly important in the Nigerian context where formal documentation of financial transactions is essential for regulatory compliance and audit purposes.
