If the main debtor does not comply with the commitment made under the contract, the Bank undertakes to pay the beneficiary the guaranteed amount.
Bank guarantee is a type of settlement in international trade, constituting a firm commitment made by the Bank (issuing bank), on behalf of the buyer, to pay the seller the value of the goods, subject to submitted documents, in strict accordance with the terms and conditions laid down in the letter of credit.
Benefits for the importer:
The letter of credit ensures payment only upon the submission of the documents certifying the delivery of the goods, in strict accordance with the specified terms.
BC Moldindconbank S.A. gives the possibility of issuing documentary letters of credit confirmed by the leading foreign banks, upon the request of customers, to cover commercial risks, insolvency risk of the issuing bank, as well as, country risks.
Benefits for the exporter:
The letter of credit ensures the payment, if the documents submitted strictly meet the requirements of the letter of credit.
Collection, through a bank, of the money owed by the importer against certain documents submitted by the exporter, certifying the delivery of the goods.
Unlike the payment by documentary letter of credit, incasso settlement is relatively simple and cheap, but bank unsecured. It is based on the buyer payment obligation, undertaken under the international commercial contract, without any payment commitment from the involved banks.
The bank, acting as an intermediary between the importer and the exporter, transmits the documents, at the exporter’s request, and receives the money for the exported goods.
Documentary incasso implies fulfilling the obligations by the exporter (delivery of the goods), before it receives a payment from the buyer (without ensuring in advance that the payment will be made).
Use this instrument if:
Exporter and the importer know each other very well.
No doubts in the importer’s ability to pay.
Political, economic and legislative conditions in the importer’s country are stable.
