English Definition

A written instrument confirming that a debt has been paid or an obligation performed and evidencing that the creditor has released the debtor; beyond a receipt, it embodies the creditor's waiver of claims arising from that debt. Drafting the scope of the release precisely is vital, since in project finance a release taken on payment to a subcontractor, unless it extends beyond the amount paid to cover all future claims relating to that work item, can leave a supposedly closed item to be reopened later on a delay or defect claim.
