What is a Letter of Credit?

A Letter of Credit is a guarantee from a bank that a buyer’s payment to a seller will be received on time and for the correct amount. If the buyer is unable to make a payment, the bank will cover the full or remaining amount of the purchase. This instrument is widely used in international trade to mitigate the risks associated with trading across borders.

Why Use a Letter of Credit?

  • Security: Provides security to both buyers and sellers by ensuring payment and delivery as per agreed terms.
  • Risk Mitigation: Reduces the risk of non-payment for sellers and ensures buyers receive their goods or services.
  • Trust Building: Enhances trust and confidence between trading partners, facilitating smoother transactions.
  • Compliance: Ensures compliance with international trade regulations and standards.

Types of Business Bank Accounts:

Revocable and Irrevocable LCs

Determine whether changes can be made to the LC without the consent of all parties.

Confirmed and Unconfirmed LCs

Enhanced payment security through verification and backing from an additional confirming bank.

Sight and Time LCs

Payment is made either immediately upon demand or on a specified future date.

Transferable and Back-to-Back LCs

Ideal for businesses with global partners, enabling transactions across various currencies.
