The mythologies of SBLCs

There is one particular myth that pervades mostly from the United States which says: “There is no way to monetize SBLCs or Bank Guarantees… Anyone who suggests otherwise is simply fraudulent”. This form of Funding for Large Projects has been going on in Asia and Europe for decades. It seems that Americans don’t understand what they don’t know. And if they don’t understand it, then it’s easiest just to believe a myth. We also call this cognitive dissonance. But to suggest that ALL BANK GUARANTEE AND SBLC MONETIZATION IS FRAUDULENT, is taking things a bit too far. Usually the person making that statement went onto the Internet and Googled “SBLC Monetization” for instance and found an article that said all Instrument trades are scams. And everyone knows you should believe EVERYTHING you see on the Internet right? So we just want to dispel that myth immediately here right now. THAT is simply a false statement. And we’ll outline the Easiest way to monetize an instrument. The Easiest Way to Monetize an SBLC or Bank Guarantee proves the Myth is Wrong The Instrument Holder, A. leased a $100Million Dollar Instrument as a requirement of his funding. His large local bank instructed him that before getting a loan for his project, Mr. A would need to lease or purchase a $100Million Stand By Letter of Credit. Mr. A obtained the Instrument, and made sure that it was: “Assignable, Transferable,…..” and could be monetized. The Instrument issued from Chase (JP Morgan). Right away, the reader should be asking themselves: “Wait a minute, how could Chase, Credit Suisse, BofA and all the top banks be issuing fraudulent notes?” Of COURSE NOT! Now, Mr. A finishes his project, and there is unused capacity to his instrument. It still has three months left on the Lease. At this point his $100Million dollar SBLC is collecting dust. Being a smart, and prudent businessperson, Mr. A, under the advise of his source remembers that he could monetize the SBLC after he completed his project. He calls Martin Burns (IOM) Limited and says: “Guess what? My Project is completed, and I still have a few months left before my SBLC expires, is there anything I can do to get my unused money back?” And we reply: “No, you cannot get your fees back, but we might be able to sell your note for you, there are buyers of instruments out there, and they’d love an SBLC from Chase!” and Mr. A says: “But I leased it?” And Martin Burns (IOM) Limited says: “We know that. But if we find a buyer, then we will simply buy the note from Chase, give them their proceeds of the sale, and you keep the rest”. So now enters the Buyer, Mr. B from Detroit. He needs a $100Million SBLC for his company. He is willing to pay 65% of the face amount of the instrument, demonstrates proof of funds, and makes an offer to purchase. At this point Martin Burns (IOM) Limited Contacts Chase, explains we have a buyer for the Note. Chase is paid 42 cents on the dollar, the buyer is paying 65 cents on the dollar… You see where this is headed? Mr. A will make a cool $20Million on this transaction, minus shipping and handling.And that is the simplest way to Monetize a Note. We have buyers contact us EVERY SINGLE day looking to purchase Instruments. Some of them want to trade notes, some of them want to sell them to large corporations, maybe they want to hold themselves. But there is a demand for SBLCs. Frankly, ANYONE who says there is no way to monetize notes, including the FBI, or your local attorney is just ignorant. They do not understand the market for notes, or that there is an entire world of traders out there some of them look for as much as $100Billion in instruments every day! To say that SBLCs or Bank Guarantees simply do not have value is gross ignorance.

WHAT IS STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT (SBLC): AND HOW TO USE IT

Entering into a commercial or financial transaction always involves certain risks for the seller or the financier. The most serious risk is that of not being paid. There are many methods available to help ensure payment. One such method is through the use of a letter of credit. The letter of credit substitutes the credit of a third party, usually a bank, for that of the buyer or debtor. In transactions in which a commercial letter of credit is used, the bank agrees to pay the seller for the goods sold, usually upon presentation of a document stating that the goods have been received by the buyer. In transactions in which a standby letter of credit is used, the bank agrees to pay the financier if the debtor defaults upon his obligation to pay. In both cases, the seller or financier is assured of payment, provided the conditions of the letter of credit are satisfied. Upon payment by the bank, the buyer or debtor is obligated to reimburse the bank. Three legal relationships exist in a...
