Question Hello Davie,
I am doing a contract deal for 12 months, as the PIA I have discussed with buyer to open a PA UCP 600 IRTDLC which he will do. So we will be dealing with DLC as financial instrument.
My plan is to repeat steps 17-22 on trading path for each shipment. Every time shipment goes out, supplier sends docs etc.
Does that make sense or what would you advise?
Answer
Dear Paula
You have to guarantee the whole contract otherwise the buyer will buy one shipment and cancel the contract then go to the supplier directly-
So all step are correct except - Make sure it s a non cumulative revovling credit that is being sought " guaranteeing" the value for then whole contract in where 3 shipments in advance always remain the active status value until the last 3 shipments in where the credit reduces to 2 then one in where the DLC expires a month there-after.
Make sure they can open such a credit-Not all bank will open a Pre advised credit-
make sure the pre advised credit turns into a full active credit, once you have provided information to take then pre advbised status off-
See how you go
Regards
Davide G.A Papa
