Documentary Collections as a Payment Method
Documentary collections is an important payment method especially as an alternative to letters of credit. This webinar highlights how documentary collections are positioned against other payment methods, how they work, and the risk in using them as a payment method.
Why this matters to your business
Documentary collections can be an effective way to balance the risks between exporter and importer with much less cost than letters of credit. But they also involve risks to the exporter.
- Documentary collections offer very good protection to the importer
- The exporter has more risk with collections than with a letter of credit, but must less risk than open account.
- Documentary collections would be a good option as a company develops a strong relationship with an importer after using letters of credit.
- Documentary collections are not suitable for air shipment.
Business challenges you may face without this knowledge
