Lenders look to derisk promoter guarantees, implementing negative liens to safeguard assets

They will require a negative lien on the assets underlying personal guarantees given by promoters of companies raising bank loans. This will prevent promoters from transferring these assets to a special trust that is bankruptcy remote.
