For valued clients only

This usually happens in case the documents are discrepant.

If the beneficiary is a valuable client, they sign an indemnity or an agreement stating that the negotiation is under reserve and that the bank advancing funds has the right to recourse on the beneficiary if the issuing bank were to refuse documents including the right to be reimbursed for interest / losses.

PAYMENT UNDER RESERVE AND INDEMNITY

Post by SHAMEER » Tue Mar 24, 2009 7:00 pm

I didn’t do it

but as far as my knowledge - when you accept the nomination and come to an internal agreement with the beny with recourse , this action take place for the non complied docs - at the sole risk of nominated bank - in such case nominated bank specify this on their covering letter as a goodwill gesture .

If such docs rejected you will not get the settlement from issuing bank which you have already paid to beny against the reserve / indemnity .

at the same time if L/C prohibits don’t do this



Thanks & Regards,
