Chapter 2 in International Lending, Risk and the Euromarkets, 1979, pp 30-73 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract International lending encompasses sensitive elements and issues. Lending to international business borrowers is an important part of the total loan activities of US banks. Business lending across national boundaries has significant effects on the allocation of productive resources. Primarily concerned with the private sector of the world economy, the purpose and characteristics of lending to international business focus on profit making and risk taking. Analysis of international lending activities should be from the standpoint of borrowers’ needs as well as lender motivation. The discussion which follows considers the purpose, characteristics and significance of international lending to business firms and banks; bank activity in the area of lending to international corporate borrowers and foreign (non-US) companies overseas; considerations involved in lending to foreign local banks; and the coordination of international lending.
