Loan suretyship

Когда требуется поручитель по кредиту

Согласно статье 361 Гражданского кодекса Российской Федерации, при заключении договора поручительства гарант берет на себя ответственность полной или частичной выплаты задолженности по обязательствам заемщика. Как правило, поручителем может выступать физическое лицо, гораздо реже — предприниматели.

Поручитель — это один из видов гаранта, поэтому при оформлении мелких кредитов он не требуется. Напротив, он необходим при крупных займах стоимостью от 1 млн рублей или когда кредитор не уверен в благонадежности клиента. Итак, обычно поручительство необходимо в следующих случаях:

1. При отрицательной или нулевой кредитной истории заемщика. У банка могут возникнуть сомнения в платежеспособности клиента, если в прошлом он уже допускал просрочки по кредитам и займам. Причем отсутствие кредитной истории в таком случае тоже не будет преимуществом.
2. Большая сумма кредита. Чем больше заем, тем больше рисков у кредитора, поэтому естественно, что банк в таком случае требует наличие гаранта. Им выступает поручитель или залоговое имущество.
3. Low borrower income.

Кто может стать поручителем

The list of guarantors is not established by law, so the requirements a guarantor must meet are entirely up to the bank. Naturally, these may vary somewhat depending on the chosen institution. However, after analyzing the requirements of several leading banks, we have identified the following:

1. Solvency. In this regard, the requirements for the guarantor are the same as for the borrower. The guarantor's income must be sufficient to repay the debt. If the guarantor is an entrepreneur, it is important to the banks that their business is not operating at a loss.
2. Age. As a rule, a guarantor cannot be under 21 years of age. Much less frequently, banks allow 18-year-old citizens to become guarantors.
3. Place of residence. In this case, both the primary borrower and the guarantor must reside in the same region where the lending institution's branch is located.
4. Good credit history. Past overdue payments and loan defaults can be grounds for refusing to act as a guarantor.
5. For some institutions, it is essential that the guarantor is a relative of the borrower.
6. No criminal record.
7. No active loans, meaning no debt burden.

It is worth noting that a refusal to act as a guarantor does not equal a loan refusal. In this case, the bank will approve the loan application and simply ask to replace the guarantor.

В чем разница между созаемщиком и поручителем

The main difference between these individuals lies in their liability to the bank. While a guarantor is someone who takes on the borrower's obligations if the latter cannot repay the loan for any reason, a co-borrower is an equally responsible party as the primary client. That is, they are obligated to repay the loan to the same extent as the primary borrower.

There is also a difference in rights. A guarantor merely assumes liability to the bank and cannot claim the borrower's property that serves as the loan collateral under any circumstances. Meanwhile, a co-borrower legally has the right to a share of this property.

Обязанности поручителя по кредиту

All liabilities of the guarantor are outlined in Article 363 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation:

1. In the event of non-performance or improper performance of the borrower's obligations, the guarantor bears joint and several liability to the bank.
2. The guarantor bears the exact same responsibility as the borrower. That is, they undertake to pay the principal debt, interest, fines, penalties, and legal costs.
3. If there are multiple loan guarantors, the bank may demand performance of obligations from each of them equally.

In addition, the guarantor undertakes to fulfill all requirements of the creditor. This means they are obliged to provide all necessary certificates and documents at the bank's first request, notify the institution of any changes in financial standing, report changes of residence, the initiation of criminal proceedings or seizure of property, the acquisition of a disability or loss of working capacity, and so on.

Права поручителя по кредиту

The rights of the guarantor are governed by Articles 364 and 365 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Prior to fulfilling obligations, the guarantor may rely on:

1. Submitting objections to the creditor's demands.
2. Non-performance of the obligation to the bank if the institution can recover the debt from the borrower.
3. After the borrower's death, the guarantor is likewise liable to the bank only if the agreement contains a clause stating that the guarantor is responsible for each new debtor.

After full repayment of the debt, the guarantor has the right to demand compensation for the full amount of incurred losses from the debtor through the court.

Основания для прекращения поручительства

The law provides for the following cases for the termination of a guarantee:

1. Full repayment of the loan by the borrower.
2. Changes to the loan agreement without the guarantor's consent that provide for an increase in the guarantor's liability.
3. Change of borrower without the guarantor's consent.
4. Refusal by the creditor to perform duties regarding the principal debtor or guarantor and unilateral modification of the loan agreement terms.
5. Upon expiration of the period specified in the guarantee agreement. If no such period is specified, all obligations terminate 12 months from the moment they arise, provided the creditor has not made claims against the guarantor.
6. If the borrower was a legal entity that ceased its operations.

Note.

The guarantee agreement must contain a clause on its validity period. If there is none, the agreement loses force one year after full loan repayment.

В каких случаях поручитель может отказаться от своих обязательств

According to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a guarantor can refuse to fulfill their obligations in the following cases:

1. When the actual loan term and the term specified in the agreement do not match.
2. If the creditor has failed to fulfill their obligations under the agreement, i.e., has not provided the loan funds.
3. If interest on the principal debt was accrued incorrectly. For example, if the actual loan interest exceeded what was stated in the agreement.

It should be noted that you cannot refuse a guarantee unilaterally. Any obligations of a third party to the agreement can only be removed through a court and upon presentation of evidence. There have also been situations where a guarantor satisfied the bank's demands on par with the primary borrower. In such cases, they also went to court to recover the overpaid amount from the creditor.

Acting as a guarantor is a serious step. By signing the agreement, a potential guarantor must realize that in the event of default by the borrower, all obligations will fall squarely on them. Therefore, when deciding on this step, evaluate your income and your willingness to bear responsibility for another person.
