Abstract: A system and method are provided for facilitating the amending of syndicated loans. Authorized users are registered in connection with their respective funds invested in the loan. Fund registration data is received for each fund and includes the fund holding amount and whether the fund is of the single or dual signature type. Authorized users may vote supporting, opposing or conditional with regard to the proposed amendment. A calculation is performed to anticipate the voting outcome before the amendment deadline. If the amendment is anticipated to pass, the conditional votes are converted to supporting votes. Typical embodiments provide for an Internet-enabled interface through which authorized users may enter or change their vote while monitoring the real-time status of the amendment. Agents may be automatically provided fund consents for each fund ending up with a supporting vote in a passing amendment. Funds may be automatically notified of the consent fee earned.
