hello,

as i know there should be expiry date in guarantee. if there is no expiry date there may arise confusion that upto which period bank should book exposure of risk. until and unless bank receives release letter of such guarantees bank is totally in risk.
such guarantees which are issued without expiry dates are called open ended guarantees which i think is risky and is not on practice by all banks.

thanks
