Abstract

Lending is a common activity in the national economy, typically associated with credit institutions and fi nancial companies. However, loan contracts between public companies and related parties such as shareholders, board members, directors, and managers also frequently arise in corporate operations. These transactions may pose risks of self-dealing and confl icts of interest. This article analyzes the current legal framework governing such contracts and off ers recommendations for improving the regulations to ensure greater transparency, fairness, and accountability in corporate governance.

Keywords: Loan contract, public companies, related persons, confl ict of interest, transaction control.
