INTERNATIONAL BANKING

About this title:
The ICC Guide to the Uniform Rules for Bank Payment Obligations examines the ways in which
the three critical components - standards, platform and rules - must interact and complement
one another to facilitate the successful completion of a BPO transaction.
BPOs enable banks to mitigate the risks associated with international trade to the benefit of
both buyers and sellers. They enable flexible financing propositions across the entire
transaction lifecycle, including pre-shipment, post-shipment and buyer finance. This invaluable
handbook explains workflow in detail and guides practitioners in their interpretation of the
Uniform Rules for Bank Payment Obligations. The Guide to URBPO provides real life business
scenarios and practical examples of how a Bank Payment Obligation may be applied in practice
to support a variety of customer value propositions. It will help corporates to take full
advantage of a host of bank-assisted open account solutions designed to optimise the
management of the cash conversion cycle and of working capital.
This Guide is a vital reference for anyone involved in financial supply chain transactions and for
students of international commerce.

About this title

The DOCDEX system is a rapid and cost-effective means of resolving letter of credit disputes through an
expert decision. Panels of three experts appointed by ICCs Centre for Expertise render decisions based
on documents submitted by the disputing parties. The Experts must render their decision within only 30
days after receipt of all documents. In most cases, a DOCDEX decision has deterred parties from going to
court.

Covering cases decided from 2009-2012, this is the third volume in the series of DOCDEX Decisions. 35
Decisions provide valuable insights into the reasoning behind the experts final judgments on the
disputes in question.

Decisions presented in this volume are about some of the most controversial provisions of the latest
revision of ICCs universally used rules on letters of credit, UCP 600. The collection also contains cases
dealing with UCP 500, UCP 222, URC 522 and URDG 458. It gives answers to complex questions like:

- Does the fact that the Respondent delivered the documents to the applicant make it liable to pay an
amount in excess of the documentary credit value?

- Is the issuing bank entitled to claim a refund, with interest, of reimbursement made to the respondent
when its refusal notice does not accord with the requirements stated under UCP 600?

- Can an error in the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of quality which constituted a
reversal of the order of the route of shipment covered by the L/C be accepted as a typing error?

The DOCDEX Decisions collections complement the ICC Banking Commission Opinions. together, they
are indispensable aids to practitioners seeking to understand how ICC rules are applied in daily practice

the law and practice of demand guarantees over a period of twenty years into this work. They
also give deeper insight into the revision process leading to URDG 758, revealing the
background of each policy choice and drafting decision they took while drafting the rules. Case
studies throughout the Guide support and enliven the comprehensive analytical commentary
on the rules.

This Guide debunks the many myths about international guarantee practice and identifies
pitfalls to avoid. Further, it tracks in detail the seven key stages of a URDG guarantee's lifecycle:

- Drafting
- Issuance
- Changing of terms
- Making a presentation
- Examining the presentation
- Making payment
- Termination of the guarantee and counter-guarantee.

"The early Regulation issued by the New York Bankers affecting export commercial letters of

demonstrate a consistent approach in UCP drafting of fashioning rules that make letters of
credit payment mechanisms." John F. Dolan, Distinguished Professor at Wayne State University
Law School.
The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP), developed by ICC, are rules
used by letter of credit practitioners the world over. But most practitioners know very little
about the UCPs creation and how they have developed over the years. The Complete UCP
traces the history of the rules from their inception more than 70 years ago through their latest
revision, UCP 600, which came into effect on 1 July 2007.
Written and compiled by Dan Taylor, Vice-Chairman of the ICC Banking Commission, this
valuable collection contains the full text of the seven versions of the UCP that have appeared
since 1933, as well as their antecedents, which date back to 1920. Each text is accompanied by
an incisive commentary explaining the major changes from one UCP to another. More than just
a history, The Complete UCP provides valuable insights into the most successful private rules
for trade ever developed. This important work will enhance your understanding of UCP 600.

"The revised ISBP is critical to correctly applying the practices of the UCP 600. It should be

Donald Smith - Chair, Banking Committee, U.S. Council for International and Business and Vice
President, Client Services, Norman Technologies International Standard
Banking Practice (ISBP) for the Examination of Documents Under Documentary Credits, 2007
Revision for UCP 600, an update of the successful ICC Publication No. 645, reflects international
standard banking practice for all parties to a documentary credit under UCP 600.
Figures show that more than 50% of credits are rejected for discrepancies on first presentation.
The new ISBP, by encouraging a uniformity of practice worldwide, should reduce that figure
dramatically and, by doing so, facilitate the flow of world trade. ISBP was conceived as an
intelligent checklist of procedures for document checkers to follow in examining the documents
presented under letters of credit. While not a substitute for the UCP, which remains the guiding
text, the ISBP demonstrates how the UCP is to be integrated into day-to-day practice.

The aim has been to provide a Commentary that enlightens practitioners as to the thought
processes behind the changes in each article and to explain why a change was introduced and,
in some cases, why no change was made. -- Gary Collyer, Chair of the UCP 600 Drafting
Group
The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has established rules on documentary credits
worldwide for more than 70 years. UCP 600, the latest version of ICCs universally used rules on
documentary credits, came into effect on July 1, 2007. Members of the Drafting Group that
developed the new UCP have produced an article-by-article Commentary on the rules.
Commentary on UCP 600, which reflects the Groups personal views*, explains the rationale
behind the changes in the rules and clarifies the general principles that underlie them. The
Drafting Groups Commentary on UCP 600 examines each of the 39 articles of the new UCP.
Each article and sub-article is analyzed under four different topics:
the text of the article (or sub-article),
the key changes from UCP 500,
a commentary explaining the rationale for the new language, and
the cross-references to other articles in UCP 600.
Practical, compact and easy-to read, Commentary on UCP 600 will be a reference book of
choice for students and users of the new UCP.*Note that Commentary on UCP 600 reflects the personal views of the
UCP Drafting Group. It does not necessarily reflect the views of the full ICC Banking Commission.

More than 15 percent of trade (over $1 trillion a year) is financed using letters of credit. ICC's
universally used Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, UCP, are the most
successful private rules for commerce ever developed. But rules require interpretation, and
courts worldwide have interpreted how the UCP should be applied in daily practice.
Here, in a single volume, the most important court cases interpreting the UCP have been
collected, analyzed and explained.
Getting to the essentials
Written by King Tak FUNG, a prominent Hong Kong lawyer, Leading Court Cases on Letter of
Credit gives the facts and analyzes the reasoning behind the cases fundamental to letter of
credit law. For each case, this important book lays out:
a summary of the facts of each case in easy-to-understand diagrams;
the key issues presented ; and
an analysis of what each court decision means for letter of credit practice.
By focusing on the essentials, Leading Court Cases distills the courts legal reasoning into a
highly readable, user-friendly reference tool. More than 40 cases are explained with skill and
insight.

About this title:

International Standby Practices fills an important gap in the market place. Though standby
letters of credit have similarities with commercial letters of credit and other financial
instrument, there are significant differences in scope and practice. A new set of Rules was
therefore required for this workhorse of commerce and finance.

ISP98 reflects a distillation of practices from a wide range of standby users: bankers, merchants,
rating agencies, corporate treasurers, credit managers, government officials and banking
regulators. Like the UCP for commercial credits, ISP98 is destined to become the industry
standard for the use of standbys in international transactions.

Another set of invaluable ICC rules, ISP98 offers a precise and detailed framework for
practitioners dealing with standby letters of credit.
