i.Article 9 of the Banking Control Law requires banks not to grant, without security, a loan or credit facilities, or issue a guarantee or incur any other financial liability in respect to parties specified in the law.
 
ii.For loans, credit facilities, guarantees or other financial liabilities to establishments not taking the form of joint-stock companies in which any of its Directors or Auditors is a partner or is a manager or has a direct financial interest, banks are required to ensure such facilities are fully secured where control relationship by the party exists. Where no control relationship exists, security for the borrowing should be on pro rata basis. In other words, only the respective party’s effective share of the facility is required to be fully secured.
