Changes to the Business Letter of Advice NAB is committed to improving transparency and certainty for small businesses loans and to make contracts simpler and easier for customers to understand. From Monday 30 April 2018, NAB will replace the Business Letter of Advice (BLA) with the Business Letter of Variation (BLV), in line with recommendations by the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman, Kate Carnell AO (Carnell Report). What is the Business Letter of Variation (BLV) The BLV is a contractual document that requires customers to agree to changes that NAB is making to its customer lending obligations. To ensure that our contractual changes are fair in value, we may need to contact customers (and guarantors where applicable) to obtain their agreement and/or notify the guarantor/s. There may be an increase in instances where NAB seeks signed agreement by customers (and guarantors where applicable) before changes to their BLV take effect, or provision of this document as a means of notification for borrowers or guarantors when making a contract change. Changes and benefits of the Business Letter of Variation Simplification of wording New look and feel to the Cover Letter Inclusion of the account number in the contract for all BLVs, except those for trade facilities; Where the indicator rate type for overdraft products has been changed, there is an indicator rate field in the contract; Reborrow has been replaced with redraw in the contract; Changes to the Farmer s Choice package can now be contracted via a BLV customers will no longer receive a Business Letter of Offer for a variation of this package; 100 security descriptions can now be added, therefore annexures will no longer be required; Addition of specific Conditions Precedent section: Things we need to do The Changes to General conditions section has been removed from the BLV document. What you need to know For BLVs with security variations, the wording in the contract will change from relating to which facility the security does not secure, to which facility the security does secure;
If there is a variation to security, this will now be listed in the contract under the heading/s relevant to the change type: Additional security, Release Existing Security (full discharge) or Change in Reliance on Security; The BLV Borrower and Guarantor signature matrix will be automated per product and variation type. It is important that these documents are executed correctly according to the signature blocks on the contract; The fulfilment process remains unchanged.
