Debt Interest and Payment Calendar Agent

Interest and fee amounts that match the lender's notice or have a documented difference, ready for payment approval

Debt Interest and Payment Calendar Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Loans and credit lines have different reset dates, day counts and fees, and a missed reset means a wrong payment. Before each payment date, this agent reads the loan terms, current benchmark rates, drawn balances and any change during the period. It calculates the interest and fees due, including commitment fees on the undrawn part. It then compares its figure with the lender's notice. If the two differ, it investigates: a rate reset date, a day count, a draw or repayment inside the period, or a fee rule. It recalculates after each finding until the gap is explained or the lender must be asked. The treasurer approves the payment instruction. Edge case: a draw on the last day of the period changes the commitment fee base, so the agent recalculates on daily balances.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

The calculation uses the agreement's rate, margin, day count and fee rules. A difference above the tolerance is investigated before payment is approved.

  • Accept a difference of $10 or less as rounding
  • Use the day count stated in each agreement
  • Include commitment fees on the undrawn balance by day
  • Never prepare a payment while a difference above tolerance is open

An example run

What happensA $12 million term loan showed interest of $104,167 on the lender's notice but the agent calculated $101,250. The check failed. It found the rate had reset on the 15th, not the 1st, and the lender used the old rate for 14 days. After the recalculation the gap was $2,917. The treasurer approved a query, the lender corrected the notice and payment went out.
