Letter of Intent (LOI)
A preliminary, typically non-binding agreement between buyer and seller outlining the key terms of the proposed acquisition (price, structure, timeline, exclusivity). In Switzerland, the LOI signals serious intent and usually grants the buyer an exclusivity period to conduct due diligence.
