Welcome to the February issue of the Heavyweight: comprehensive coverage of this month's banking and insolvency law.
This month, amongst much more:
- a term was not implied into a forward sale agreement as to the true market value of assets or imposing a duty of care on the valuer in Socimer v Standard Bank
- a bank's right of action on a mortgage was confirmed to be statute-barred in Ashe v NatWest
- a question over who was the buyer in option agreements entered into by a bank as agent for other banks in a syndicate, in British Energy v Credit Suisse
- companies will from 6 April 2008 be able to execute deeds by the signature of a single director in the presence of a witness: remember to check your standard execution clauses
- Northern Rock legislation: the Banking (Special Provisions) Act 2008 and the Compensation Scheme Draft Order 2008
I hope you find this issue useful.
