LETTERS OF CREDIT

Import/Export Letters of Credit

Provide certainty of payment and can be denominated in U.S. or foreign currency... We deliver letters promptly and help ensure compliance with terms of the letter of credit...

For export letters of credit, we assist in evaluating terms, and help you comply with the terms and conditions to receive prompt payment for your goods...

Standby Letters of Credit

We structure a standby letter of credit – in U.S. or foreign currency­ – to facilitate your local or overseas transaction... This document assures performance of a contractual obligation by importers and exporters to help establish “open account” relationships and guarantee payment if there is default on “open account” terms... It can also act as a bid, warranty, or performance bond when bidding on a contract.

DOCUMENTARY COLLECTIONS

Our experience helps importers and exporters gain assurance of payment by maintaining control of your or your supplier’s goods until payment is made... This minimizes risk of losing title to goods.

EXCHANGES & TRANSFERS

Foreign Exchange

At competitive rates.

Foreign Drafts & Wire Transfers

We remit funds internationally in U.S. dollars or foreign currencies to handle payments or remittances to any foreign country... Paying in local currency via a draft ensures the correct value is received by the vendor/supplier... Our wire transfers efficiently move funds electronically to an overseas bank.
