LC Cost Negotiation Services
Letters of credit can become unnecessarily expensive when clients accept fee structures without testing whether the pricing matches the actual risk, country profile or format being used. Sometimes the problem is not the LC itself. The problem is the version of it and the way it was negotiated.
FG Capital Advisors assists recurring LC users with cost review, structure comparison and negotiation support aimed at reducing avoidable bank charges.

Why Clients Use This Service
Many clients do not have a clear view of which charges reflect actual bank risk and which charges are simply the result of weak negotiation or repeated amendments.
A different LC structure may reduce total cost or administrative burden without undermining the commercial objective.
Who This Is For
This service is intended for importers and trading businesses with recurring LC volume that want a formal review of pricing, cost drivers and negotiation position.
