An investment agreement outlines the terms and conditions of a project between two parties, including the amount of money to be invested and the goods or services to be produced. The contract can cover any type of commercial enterprise and includes details such as repayment method, duration, and investor involvement in decision-making. The agreement also includes provisions for examining financial documents and resolving legal disputes.

An investment agreement is a contract that establishes the rights and responsibilities of two parties to an investment project. The investment contract defines the structure and nature of the investment. Specify how much money one party must pay the other and the goods or services to be financed or produced by the investment.
The parties to the investment agreement can be individuals, partners, an individual and a business, or a company and a host country. Virtually any type of commercial enterprise can be covered by the agreement. The parameters of the agreement are determined by the parties in the contract. However, the basic chord form is the same for most projects.

The preliminary section of an investment contract sets out the name of the investor and the individual, partner or company accepting the investment. The nature of the project or business is included in this section. It also establishes the amount of the investment and the “consideration” offered for it. The consideration is usually a profit-sharing or some similar benefit.

A method of repayment of the investment is included in the contract. The duration of the agreement is also specified. The payout is usually a percentage of the profits. However, the parties can agree to any agreement. Payments are generally linked to the duration of the contract.

Some contracts give the investor the right to be involved in significant decisions regarding the investment project. These may include decisions such as expanding or selling the business or how it should be promoted. Other forms of investment agreement do not include the investor in the project decision making process.

Investor rights to examine books and documents relating to the financial operation of the project are usually included in the contracts. The procedures for requesting the examination of the documents are also specified. The ability of the parties to change the agreement and how to do so are also covered in the contract. The assignment of investor rights may be permitted or precluded by the agreement.

A concluding section lists the options available to the parties in the event of legal disputes arising from the agreement. Most contain provisions about what state or national law will govern any legal dispute. Some agreements may have a mandatory dispute resolution clause. Most provide for the payment of legal fees to the prevailing party in any dispute arising out of the investment contract.
