1 OVERVIEW
Documentary Credits (DC) is an important part of the Trade Finance Module. This section covers the entire life cycle of DC, starting from the parameter set up, issuance, modification, amendments etc . The banking concepts related to Documentary Credits are also discussed as part of this section. Finally there is a section dealing with reports.
DOCUMENTARY CREDIT
A Documentary Credit (also called as Letter of Credit in some Countries) is an undertaking by a bank to the Beneficiary (Exporter/ seller) that it would make payment to him against presentation of documents drawn in terms of the credit. The Documentary Credit (DC) would be issued at the request of the customer (Importer /buyer) of the bank.
DC is a widely prevalent mechanism for settlement of trade in international trade. It assures the exporter of payment. Also, he is assured that the importer is bonafide and that the formalities in the importers country regarding the import have been complied with. As far as the importer is concerned, he will pay for the import only on receipt of the documents conforming to the terms and conditions of the credit.
UCPDC (Art 2) defines a DC as under: any arrangement whereby a bank (the issuing bank) acting at the request and on the instructions of a customer (the applicant for the credit) or on its own behalf undertakes i) To make a payment to or to the order of the third party (the beneficiary) or is to accept and pay the bills of exchange (drafts) drawn by the beneficiary; or ii) Authorizes another bank to effect such payment or accept and pay such bills of exchange (drafts); or iii) Authorizes another bank to negotiate, against stipulated documents provided that the terms and conditions of the credit are complied with.
PARTIES TO A DOCUMENTARY CREDIT

The parties to a Documentary credit are defined as follows:
Documentary Credit Page 1
Ver Rev 1.00
Infosys
FINACLE_UET
Finacle
Training Document Beneficiary The seller of goods or services to whom the Documentary credit is
addressed. The party entitled to its benefits.
Applicant or Account Party The buyer of goods or services who requested the
Documentary credit to be issued.
Issuing Bank The primary financial institution that initiates and writes the
Documentary credit extending their guarantee and liability to pay if the terms and conditions are fulfilled.
Advising Bank The bank, usually in the beneficiary's country, whose primary job
is to pass on the Documentary credit to the beneficiary. The advising bank is principally a correspondent bank of the issuing bank which means that the two parties have exchanged authenticating procedures, and may have also established accounts with each other. An important part of passing on a Documentary credit to a beneficiary is verifying its authenticity. When the advising bank authenticates the credit, they are saying it is a genuine instrument from the named issuing bank. They are not commenting on the creditworthiness of the bank or its country. This procedure gives the seller some protection against fraudulent instruments. That is why it is common practice to have letters of credit advised to a seller through a correspondent bank. The advising bank may receive the Documentary credit by mail, telex, cable, or S.W.I.F.T.
Confirming Bank A separate financial institution requested by the issuing bank

to add their guarantee of payment or acceptance to the credit instrument. It is necessary for this bank to establish a credit line or facility for the issuing bank in order to agree with this request. The confirming bank is usually but not necessarily the advising or drawee bank. The beneficiary cannot request on its own for a bank to confirm a Documentary credit. The request must come through the issuing bank. Therefore, a seller should ask the buyer to authorize the issuing bank to request confirmation.
Reimbursing Bank Sometimes the issuing bank names a bank where it keeps
funds in the currency of the Documentary credit to pay drawee or negotiating banks on its behalf. This bank is known as a reimbursing bank, and is usually named under the special instructions portion of the Documentary credit.
Negotiating Bank A bank either nominated by the beneficiary under a freely

negotiable Documentary credit or designated as a restricted negotiating bank by

the issuing bank. Allows more flexibility in making payment, and enables beneficiaries to present documents for payment to their local international bank.

3.1.2 FLOW OF DC EXPLAINED :

(Following is a simple cycle of a DC)
1. The buyer fills out a Documentary credit application which satisfies the terms of the purchase agreement plus the requirements of customs law, shipment, and document coordination.
2. The bank issuing the Documentary credit (usually the buyer's bank), rechecks the application to ensure that it is complete and workable. The Documentary credit is then issued after the buyer's credit facilities are verified.
3. The issuing bank transmits the Documentary credit to a correspondent bank by telex, S.W.I.F.T., or airmail and asks them to advise or confirm/the/instrument.
4. The correspondent bank receives the Documentary credit, checks authenticity, records, and transmits the instrument to the seller or beneficiary, and adds their confirmation if requested. Upon receipt of the Documentary credit, the seller should carefully review it to determine whether he or she can comply with its performance requirements and whether it is acceptable from a credit standpoint.
5. Upon determination that the Documentary credit is acceptable, the seller should ship the goods precisely pursuant to its terms and conditions. The seller must prepare documents exactly as required and then present them to the proper paying bank. The proper paying bank may be any bank specified in the Documentary credit to accept, pay, or negotiate. This may be the advising bank, confirming bank, issuing bank, or (on a freely negotiable credit) any bank that is willing to negotiate.
6. When the paying bank receives the documents, it will examine them to determine if they are in order pursuant to the Documentary credit's terms and conditions. If in order, the bank may pay, accept, or negotiate as required by the Documentary credit. The paying bank will transmit the documents to the issuing bank and request reimbursement. Reimbursement may
Ver Rev 1.00
FINACLE_UET

come direct from the issuing bank or the issuing bank may have instructions added to the Documentary credit to reimburse on another bank or to simply charge its account. 7. Upon receiving the documents, the issuing bank will examine them to ensure that they are in order as specified and then reimburse the negotiating bank. For time drafts, reimbursement is made at maturity of the Banker's Acceptance. 8. The issuing bank debits the buyer's account and releases the documents. 9. The buyer exchanges the shipping documents for the goods.

Banks levy charges for various DC activities. In Finacle, they are created using the option HPTTM. Amortization of charges is also supported for the various DC related events.
Five types of charge calculation methods are
available - Charge Code (Created using
HASTM option), Fixed Amount, Variable amount, Formula based (MRT), SCRPT (script based). HASTM option is used to set up differential charge percentage based on the amount involved. The charges are basically event based i.e., charges are calculated on occurrence of an event. The events for the DC related charges are

Once the value is set, it is NOT modifiable Type of Credit : The type of credit is to identify the DC as I - Inland DC or F - Foreign DC. This field is also not modifiable once set. Charge Code : As stated earlier, this is the charge code, created through HPTTM option.
The details of charges to be collected are specified here. The different DC event types for which charges set up can be done are DCISS (for DC issue), DCAMD (amendment of DCs issued), DCREN (reinstatement of a revolving DC), DCADV (DC advising), DCCLS (DC closure charges), DCTFR (charges during DC transfer), DCNBL (charges during DC Utilisation without bills). The set up for amortisation is also done through HPTTM. Cont. Rate Code: The exchange rate code, the corresponding rate of which has to be
applied for creating contingent liability transactions. The rate code is defaulted to DC level and can be modified at the DC level.
Tolerance pcnt: The amount in percentage above/below the current value of the DC up to which the beneficiary can withdraw. The value can be either negative or positive. This is defaulted at the time of issue/advise of the DC.
Internal limits reqd? : Based on the value of this flag, the bank can track the exposure of the bank towards a particular entity. User can change this field value up to verification of the respective entities. The valid values for this flag are : A - to exclude from all internal limits (implies no limits are updates) B - to exclude from bank limit, C - to exclude from Country limit, Y - to exclude from Buyers limit,

Customer limit will be updated during DC issue. Manual Upload : This field is used at the time of migrating from an existing system or an uncomputerised system to Finacle. This field will have value Y, until all the uncomputerised/(existing sytem) data is uploaded. When the value is Y, it allows the user to input a DC which has expired. Once all the DCs are uploaded, this field should be made as N, so that user will not be able to input the DCs whose expiry date is less than BOD date. Max.

If the bank wants contingent liability entries to be passed on issue of a documentary credit or on advice of confirmed DCs, the Gen Liab Transaction flag should be set . User has the option of maintaining liability accounts either in Home Currency or in DC currency. If contingent liability entries are to be passed in respective DC currencies, then user will have to open as many office accounts. The contingent accounts can be partitioned by type DOCCR or ASSET, so that DC-wise break up of liability will be available, in the contingent accounts. The following fields are related to contingent liability creation. Gen. Liab.Transactions? : Banks which do not have the policy of creating contingent

(In case of Inward DCs (advice), if Add Confirmation flag in IDCM is set as Y, only then the contingent accounting entries will be generated.) Contingent Accounting in HC?: This field is used to decide the currency of contingent liability transactions. It can be Y (for passing contingent transactions in Home currency), or N (for contingent transaction in DC currency). Margin A/c.

5.3
AMORTIZATION OF CHARGES
As the charges collected on a DC event for future period, banks may like to treat the charges as ADVANCE INCOME at the time of collection and may like to amortise the same over the period of the DC. Facility is available in the system to do the same. Charges can be amortized in charge collection currency only. Charges are amortized from the issue date of the DC. Charges are amortized up to the Expiry date of the DC. Income account will not be credited at time of issue of DC, but will be credited only at the end of each amortization period (depending on amortization frequency), after amortization process is run.
An example for the above process can be : Let us assume that a bank has earned an income of INR 1000 on issuance of a DC. The tenor of the DC spans for 1 year and the bank recognizes all income falling due in a quarter as income earned into its P&L account. Based on this, INR 750 / - needs to be credited to the Income earned in Advance account and INR 250/- to be credited to P&L for charges
Ver Rev 1.00
FINACLE_UET
Finacle
pertaining to the running quarter, on the last day of that quarter. At the end of one year, the entire amount would have been transferred to the credit of the P&L account. If the DC is extended, the previous amortized amount is not changed. The system will amortize the charges over the extended period. If the tenor of the DC or BG is reduced, the charges yet to be amortized, will be amortized over the remaining period. If a DC / BG is closed before the actual expiry date, the entire un-amortized portion can be amortized on the date of the closure as part of amortisation process. An example for the above process can be Let us assume that a DC with a tenor of one year opened for USD 100000. Charges collected are INR 12000, amortized over a period of 12 months @ 1000 per month. In the sixth month, the client through an amendment reduces the tenor of the DC by two months. By such time, the bank has already amortized INR 6000. The balance would in this case be amortized equally over the remaining period of 4 months. Similarly, if the DC is extended, then the un amortized commission will be amortized over the extended period. Only Straight-Line Method of Amortization is applied to these charges where the amortization will be considered proportional to the ratio of current amortization period over total period for amortization. The period will be considered in days. An example for the above process can be Let us assume that a DC with a tenor of one year opened for USD 100000. Charges collected are INR 12000, amortized over a period of 12 months. Amortization frequency is monthly. (Tenor: 01/01/01 to 31/12/01) Step 1 System to calculate the Per Day charge levied by the bank to the customer, i.e. INR 12000 / 365 = INR 32.87 / Day Step 2 On the date of Amortization, (derived based on the frequency specified by the user) the amount to be transferred to the P&L account, i.e. On 31st Jan in above example, amount to be transferred to P&L would be INR 32.87 X 30days = INR 1019.178. This process should be continued till the expiry date. On the last day of amortization, the remaining balance in
Ver Rev 1.00
FINACLE_UET
Finacle
the advance account will be completely reversed, as the entire commission would have been transferred to the P&L. Step 3 Amendment to the Instrument where the period can be extended/new charge can be collected during the lifetime of the DC. In the example Increase to the DC Tenor : In the sixth month, the client through an amendment increased the tenor of the DC by two months. Additional commission of INR 2000 was also collected. By such time, the bank has already amortized INR 4964.384 (collected earlier) The total outstanding commission now available with the bank for amortization is INR 7035.616 + INR 2000. The outstanding period is 7 months + 2 months. Hence, the system would now need to re-calculate the per day charge for the instrument as follows INR 9065.616 / (214 + 59) (INR 9065.616 arrived as INR 7035.616 + INR 2000, Number of Days are the outstanding 214 from June to December 31st + the additional 2 months) Hence, INR 33.09 / Day The balance will be amortized equally over the remaining period. (i.e. on 30th June INR 33.09 X 30 Days = INR 992.92) Reduction in the DC Tenor Assume that in the sixth month, the client through an amendment reduces the tenor of the DC by two months. The balance would in this case be amortized equally over the remaining period On closure of the DC, as part of amortisation run, the entire un-amortized commission will be transferred to the P&L account.
The amortization process can triggered manually as well as by setting up a batch job to be run at a pre-determined frequency. The menu option to be invoked for amortizing the charges manually/online mode is CAM. The Screen interface is given below :

The user to specify, among other things, the following parameters in the above screen Collect Today flag - It is default populated as N. If the CAM is run with value set to Y, then the entire un amortised amount will be amortised immediately. User would resort to this, when he does not want to wait till the next amortisation frequency for amortising the charges collected. Ideally this may be the case when a. b. charge un-amortised is less than the minimum amount for amortization (set up in HPTTM); and the BG is prematurely closed;
Amortize Till Date is the date up to which amortization needs to be done.
The amortisation process can be also automated i.e., can be set as a batch job through the BJSTM menu option.

CAM execution will result in generation of following reports regarding the amortisation done : 1. 2. 3. Success Report Failure Report Summary Report
It is also possible to set the amortisation process of a batch job, to ensure that the amortisation happens at a pre-determined frequency. However, Bank may want to amortise the entire commission collected in some cases, without following the frequency defined, e.g., where a BG/DC is pre-closed or when the commission amount is equal to minimum commission. To meet both these conditions (amortise at regular frequency and jump the frequency in select cases), two separate batch jobs are to be set up by the bank, for amortization. One job for regular amortization, (with frequency set as per the banks policy). The other job is to be set with frequency as daily and Collect Today Flag = Y. It will pick up all the those records that required to be amortized completely, on the same day. E.g. charge amount is less than the minimum amount for amortization (set up in HPTTM) the BG/DC is closed
