| Banking Dictionary: Netting |
Written contract to settle mutual obligations at the net value of the contracts, as opposed to the gross dollar value. Thus, two banks owing each other $10 million and $12 million, respectively, might agree to value their mutual obligation at $2 million (the net difference between $10 million and $12 million) for accounting purposes. There are various forms of netting in banking: bilateral netting, an agreement by two parties to settle contracts at net value; multilateral netting, a netting arrangement with a third party acting as a central clearinghouse; and netting by novation, in which a new agreement replaces an existing contract. See also Novation.
