loan restructuring

Modified repayment terms

Loan restructuring is the process of modifying the terms of an existing loan—typically to make repayment more manageable for a borrower in financial difficulty.

Changes may include extending the repayment period, lowering the interest rate, or reducing the principal owed.

After the company missed several payments, the bank agreed to a loan restructuring.

Unlike refinancing, which replaces one loan with another, restructuring renegotiates the original agreement.
