Depends on ....
Hi Pal,
difference is in the indemnity issuer, one thing is a bank, another thing is the applicant.
I dare say that sometime the applicant could have a better standing than a bank, but at least a bank should have a better reputation and not involved in the commercial transaction.
Other comments appreciated

Hi All:
Since the BL is consigned to the issuing bank, only the issuing bank have the physical access to the goods. Normal procedure would be for the bank to endorse the BL to the applicant after the applicant have satisified all conditions lay out by the bank.
In this case, its apparent that the applicant doesn't have the time to wait for the issuing bank to endorse the BL to them or that the applicant might have difficulties fulfilling conditions lay out by the bank.
It would be a risk to the carrier to release cargo to the applicant. Carrier would be liable to the issuing bank. The carrier need to indemntify themselves against potential losses, expenses, legal fees if it so choose to release cargo to the applicant.
Hence, a letter of indemnity would be required from the applicant if they want the carrier to release cargo to them. Answer: D
