IV. Documentation.
Documentation means execution of documents in the proper form and according to law.
Documentation establishes relationship between the Corporation and borrower. It avoids
ambiguities.
Documents are very important to the Corporation as they are the primary evidence in any
dispute between the parties. They help the Corporation in the court of law. Without the
support of the properly executed documents, the Corporation cannot be successful in a suit
filed in a court of law. Documents which are not properly executed cannot be enforced
against the borrower and their purpose itself is defeated.
It is therefore, very essential that those who are responsible for obtaining and executing the
documents must be thoroughly conversant with the process of their execution. While
obtaining the documents the points regarding the constitution of borrowers, the nature and
