Important. Securities activities are conducted under a chaperone arrangement with a U.S. registered broker-dealer. We are not a bank. Any SBLC issuance or confirmation is subject to bank approval, KYC and sanctions screening, and definitive documentation.
Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC) Advisory: Placement & Execution
We handle SBLC issuance, confirmation, and reimbursement mechanics with wording control under ISP98 and URDG758. The objective is straightforward: acceptable language for the applicant and beneficiary, a confirming bank when required, and document readiness that prevents delays at presentation.
What We Arrange
- Performance and advance payment SBLCs for projects and long-lead supply
- Bid bonds and retention guarantees with workable reduction language
- Financial SBLCs and standby reimbursement undertakings
- Confirmation by rated banks, country risk transfer, and discounting where appropriate
Why It Works
- Chaperoned distribution with established bank counterparties
- Execution focus: short list, fee grid, and document pack prepared early
- Clean draw conditions and practical cure periods to reduce wrongful calls
- Success-based economics with a modest work fee credited at close
Outcome. Bankable wording, predictable timelines, and proceeds released without avoidable discrepancies.
