Bills for Collection
Bills for Collection are instruments designed for the settlement of a payment obligation between a buyer and a seller. They are often used in cases where the seller and the buyer have an established business relationship.
As opposed to Documentary Credits, Bills for Collection do not constitute any commitment or obligation on the part of the Bank to pay the seller if the buyer does not have available funds to effect payment.
Edinburgh Investment Online simply acts as an intermediary between the seller and the buyer to collect the value of the documents, by handling the Bills for Collection documents based on the seller’s instructions.
