WIPRO Imports a Computer from Fujitsu
Risk for Fijitsu what if WIPRO defaults
We want an LC opened in out favour by HSBC
LC stands for Letter of Credit
It is opened at a the import's request in favour of a beneficiary
HSBC is called the Opening Bank
Fujitsu is the beneficiary
WIPRO is the Importer
HSBC says that if the goods are shipped as per the terms of the deal and all proper dcuments are submitted
The it will make the payment to Fujitsu
LC and a Bank Guarantee
LC if the documents are in order HSBChas to pay. Collecting from the importer is its headache India Japan
Bank Guarantee means HSBC will pay if WIPRO is unable or unwilling to pay Deal is in JPY
LC is unconditional More safety for the exporter and greater risk for the bank The risk is for the Indian
BG is conditional Less safety for the exporter and less risk for the bank Importer
In both cases final responsibility to pay rests with the bank If it is IN INR
Risk is for the japanese
