Permitted Discretion Clause Samples

The Permitted Discretion clause defines the scope within which a party, typically one with decision-making authority, may exercise judgment or make choices under the contract. It sets boundaries or criteria for how discretion can be used, often requiring that decisions be reasonable, made in good faith, or not arbitrary. For example, a lender may have permitted discretion to approve or deny certain borrower requests, provided the decision aligns with agreed standards. This clause ensures that discretionary powers are not abused and provides predictability and fairness in the exercise of contractual rights.
