Debt settlement in the Bank

If an overdue debt arises under obligations to the Bank, the situation can be resolved in accordance with certain conditions and procedures provided for in the agreement between the debtor (borrower) and the Bank. Below are the main stages of debt settlement and measures that can be taken by the Bank in the event of insolvency of the borrower:

1. Borrower's application:

If an overdue debt arises, the borrower must contact the Bank in writing or in another way provided for by the agreement, submitting a statement indicating the reasons for the delay in payment under the agreement, information on income and other confirmed circumstances about the need to make changes to the terms of the agreement. These changes may include deferment of payments, changes in the repayment schedule, independent sale by the mortgagor of the property that serves as security for the fulfillment of the obligation, write-off of penalties, commissions and other payments, as well as other proposals that comply with the law and the terms of the agreement.

2. Review by the Bank:

The Bank considers changes proposed by the borrower to the terms of the agreement within the established time frame in accordance with internal regulations and current legislation. After considering the borrower’s proposal, the Bank informs about the following decision:

  • Agreement with the proposed changes to the terms of the bank loan agreement;
  • Proposal for possible changes to the terms of the contract (acceptable to both parties);
  • Refusal to change the terms of a bank loan agreement, indicating a reasoned justification for the reasons for such refusal.

3. Measures taken by the Bank in case of non-compliance with requirements:

If the borrower does not fulfill or improperly fulfills its obligations under the agreement, the Bank has the right to take measures in accordance with the law and the terms of the agreement. Such measures may include the following:

  • Indisputable foreclosure of money, including by presenting a payment request, available in the borrower’s bank accounts;
  • Presentation of a demand for early repayment of the entire amount of the loan subject;
  • Filing a claim in court to collect the amount of debt under a bank loan agreement, as well as foreclosure on pledged property out of court or in court;
  • Filing a lawsuit to declare the borrower bankrupt in accordance with the law;
  • Application of other measures provided for by law and the terms of the bank loan agreement.

These steps and measures may vary depending on the contract and the legislation in force in the Republic of Kazakhstan, but they provide the Bank with tools to resolve overdue debts and ensure compliance with the terms of the contract.
