INTERNATIONAL TRADE PAYMENT METHODS
OPEN ACCOUNT
Definition
An arrangement between the buyer and seller whereby the goods are manufactured and delivered before payment is made. This is the most advantageous to the buyer in cash flow and cost terms, but it posts the highest risk for the seller
OPEN ACCOUNT
Advantage to buyer
1. The buyer pays for the goods or services only when they are received and/or inspected
2. Unlike advance payment, the buyer’s working capital is not tied up
3. Payment is subject to political, legal or economic situations in the buyer’s country
OPEN ACCOUNT
Advantage to seller
1. It enhances the seller’s competitiveness in the global market
2. It helps to establish and maintain long-term trade relationship with the buyer
OPEN ACCOUNT
Key considerations
1. It is recommended to use to secure trading relationships in competitive markets
2. Seller must be confident that the buyer will accept shipment and pay on the agreed time
OPEN ACCOUNT
Key considerations
3. Seller need to assess the political, legal or economic conditions in the buyer’s country to avoid delay in payment
4. Seller may mitigate risk of non-payment by using various trade financing options such as accounts receivable financing, export credit insurance, factoring and forfaiting
ADVANCE PAYMENT
Definition
An Advance Payment is the whole or part of a contractually due sum that is paid by the buyer in advance prior to shipment of goods or provision of services
OPEN ACCOUNT
Advantage to buyer
The buyer may be able to negotiate for a discount in prices in lieu of advance payment
OPEN ACCOUNT
Advantage to seller
1. The seller can have immediate use of funds
2. The risk of non-payment is eliminated
OPEN ACCOUNT
Commonly used, if…
1. The buyer’s creditworthiness is doubtful
2. There is unstable political or economic environment in the buyer’s country
3. There is a potential delay in receiving funds from the buyer due to events beyond the buyer’s control
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Definition
An arrangement whereby goods are shipped and the relevant bill of exchange (draft) is drawn by the seller on the buyer, and/or documents are sent to the seller’s bank with clear instructions for collection of payment through a bank located in the domicile of the buyer
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Advantage to buyer
1. Payment may be deferred until the arrival of goods or even later if delayed payment arrangements have been made between the buyer and seller
2. Documentary collection is relatively cheaper than documentary credit
3. The buyer may have the opportunity to inspect the documents prior to making payment
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Advantage to seller
1. Documentary collection is generally uncomplicated and inexpensive compared to a documentary credit
2. The seller may arrange the title documents to be released to the buyer only upon his payment or acceptance of draft
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Advantage to seller
3. In the event of non-payment or non-acceptance, the appointed Collecting Bank, if properly authorized, may arrange for releasing or warehousing of goods, insurance or even reshipment to the seller
4. It facilitates pre or post shipment financing related to the documentary collection
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Key Considerations
1. Documentary collection is a good trade-off if the seller is not prepared to transact on open account basis and does not want to go through the hassle of settling a transaction using documentary credit
2. Unlike documentary credit, banks do not guarantee payment under a documentary collection
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Key Considerations
3. Documentary collection is suitable for the seller if:
a) the buyer’s creditworthiness is not in doubt;
b) the political and economic situation in the buyer’s country is stable; and
c) there is no foreign exchange control policy in the buyer’s country
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION
Key Considerations
4. By releasing a copy of the original bill of lading to the buyer made out to or endorsed the latter’s order, the seller will lose control over the titles of the goods
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Definition
Documentary Credit (or Letter of Credit) is an undertaking issued by a bank for the account of the buyer or for its own account, to pay the seller provided that all the terms and conditions of the credit are complied with
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Advantage to buyer
1. The buyer’s creditworthiness is enhanced with a bank willing to issue a documentary credit for his account
2. Payment is only made by the bank upon the seller’s fulfilment of the terms and conditions of the credit.
3. It helps to facilitate downstream import financing services
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Advantage to seller
1. The Bank acts as a trusted third party to guarantee payment if the seller can fulfil the terms and conditions of the credit.
2. Title of the goods is retained by the seller or bank until payment or acceptance of documents by the buyer
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Advantage to seller
3. Documentary credit operations are guided by recognized international rules and practices
4. It facilitates pre or post shipment financing related to the documentary credit
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Key Considerations
1. When the seller is preparing quotations for prospective buyer, he has to be mindful that banks pay only the amount specified in the documentary credit, even if additional costs such as shipping or insurance charges are incurred and documented
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Key Considerations
2. Payment under a documentary credit is based on documents rather that the terms of sale or the physical conditions of the goods
3. When the seller receives a documentary credit in his favor, he should examine its terms and conditions against the pre-agreed contractual terms
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Key Considerations
4. Seller must be confident that he can fulfil the terms and conditions of the documentary credits in order to secure payment. If in doubt, the seller should approach the buyer to amend the terms and conditions in the documentary credit
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
Key Considerations
5. The terms and conditions of a documentary credit must not be ambiguous so as to avoid future disputes
