Online Training 2015 - Rules and Laws Governing Standby Letters of Credit (for Bankers) - By Compliance Global Inc

Overview:
This webinar includes a detailed review of the laws and rules governing standby letter of credit, including a comparison of the UCP600 rules and the ISP98 rules.
The target audience is bank staff who actually issue standby letters of credit and other bank employees who work with them and with customers who use letters of credit. Recommended wording will be explored and lessons learned will be reinforced by reviewing actual lawsuits. Participants will learn how to write well-worded letters of credit that protect their banks, and their customers, from disputes and lawsuits.
Why Should You Attend:
Standby letters of credit can and should be considered dangerous territory by banks that issue them without a firm foundation in the laws and rules that govern them. Many banks have been taken to court for refusing to pay letters of credit without proper grounds for such refusal and also for paying letters of credit when they did have proper grounds and failed to exercise them. Sometimes it comes down to failing to refuse quickly enough or otherwise not following the rules for communicating refusal.
This webinar will explore intricacies in the laws and rules that govern standby letters of credit and provide the necessary background for participants to further study them and lawsuits involving them and thereby avoid becoming a party to a lawsuit themselves.
