ETC’s Export Letter of Credit or L/C Confirmation is a solution designed to secure and facilitate international trade transactions for African banks and their corporate clients. This service guarantees payments for exporters, ensuring smooth and reliable transactions.
In the context of trade with and within Africa, payment security and trust between trading partners are essential. In the L/C Confirmation, ETC, acting as the confirming institution, adds its commitment to that of the African issuing bank on behalf of the foreign exporting beneficiary. This helps overcome challenges related to the specific risks of African economies, facilitates international trade, and reduces financial risks for exporters and importers.
The Export Letter of Credit is an irrevocable commitment issued by ETC as a Non-Banking Financial Institution, guaranteeing that the seller (exporter) will receive payment upon presentation of documents that comply with the specified terms and conditions. It ensures the security of commercial transactions by confirming that payment will be made once contractual conditions are met. The confirmation provides additional assurance to the seller, who can rely on it in case of insolvency of the issuing bank.
