GENERAL PRINCIPLE- NATURE OF STANDBYS

Post by dinesh2476 » Mon Nov 14, 2022 3:15 pm

Hi Experts,

We seek your support.

b. because a standby is irrevocable, an issuer's obligations under a standby can not be amended or canceled by the issuer except as provided in the standby or as consented to by the person against whom the amendment or cancellations is asserted.

can you help me to understand the term WHOM is being referred to whom ---
  • any advisor or
    any conformer or
    any nominated person acting on its nomination
    or the beneficiary?
Thanks & Regards
Dinesh Kumar

Hi Picant,

Thanks. UCP is very clear

However. ISP is not clear with regard to the cancellation proposed by the issuer. So for example, there is an involvement of the advisor, confirmer, and beneficiary. When the issuer request a cancellation, does the issuer need to seek consent from the advisor as well?

Thanks & Regards

Hi Pal,

reading point 2.06, 7,01 IMHO it seems working the same as UCP 600, except in 7.02 where more actions are required.
I have little experience about ISP98 as opinions are not issued by ICC.
Other comments appreciatd
Ciao
