Question juridique clé
Whether the contractual clause on 'loss of interest established' entitled the lender to an early repayment fee after premature loan termination.
Solution extraite
Yes. The clause was to be understood as requiring the borrower to compensate the lender for the interest it would lose until contractual maturity, subject to an appropriate discount for early payment.
Motifs extraits
Under the trust principle, a lender entering a fixed-term commercial loan may expect interest until maturity. The wording, contract structure, and economic purpose showed that the clause aimed to cover future interest loss; the lender had already applied a market-based discount, which complied with Art. 81(2) CO.
