Letters of Credit

A Letter of Credit is one of the most secure payment methods an exporter can use to ensure payment is received for a shipment.   It is typically set up as a contract between an importer’s bank and the exporter, who is designated as the beneficiary.  The steps involved in the Letter of Credit process can be a bit tricky to navigate so this webinar reviews the process carefully and will be valuable to anyone involved in international trade.   

Why this matters to your business

  • Letters of Credit are particularly useful when working with new buyers or new suppliers
  • Letters of Credit reduce payment risks in international transactions

Business challenges you may face without this knowledge

  • Companies that do not use Letters of Credit may face significant credit risks in certain situations
  • Companies that do not use Letters of Credit may be unable to work with some buyers

Who should watch this webinar

  • All companies that are exporting and importing
  • Businesses owners from all sectors who want to better understand how to reduce customer credit risk in new markets
