The Finance Contract serves as a fundamental legal document for establishing financing arrangements in Saudi Arabia, structured to comply with both Shariah principles and Saudi banking regulations. It is typically used when a financial institution provides funding to corporate or individual clients, requiring detailed documentation of the financing structure, profit calculation methods, and security arrangements. The contract must adhere to Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) requirements and Islamic finance principles, avoiding conventional interest-based mechanisms. This document is essential for any significant financing transaction in Saudi Arabia, whether for project finance, corporate funding, or asset financing, and includes specific provisions for regulatory compliance, Zakat considerations, and dispute resolution under Saudi law.
