Features & Benefits of Guarantees

  • For sellers (exporters), guarantees can allow you to bid for contracts that you might not have otherwise considered.
  • For sellers (exporters), guarantees can help you to manage your cash flow by enabling the release of cash from your buyers at an earlier stage in your contract.
  • For buyers (importers), guarantees can offer your suppliers security for payments to be made to them. This may allow you to improve the terms of your contract with them.
