4.0 ISLAMIC TRADE FINANCE PRODUCTS
Islamic trade financing can be defined as a process of financing for several activities which
are related to both domestic and international transactions. According to Naim and Zainol
(2015), trade financing facilities can be broadly divided into three types which are import
financing, export financing and other facilities.
I. Import Financing
Import finance specializes in overcoming the delays associated with trading overseas
that will be the burden on the cash flow of an importer and leaving working capital
free to invest in the growing business (https://learn.marketinvoice.com/article/what-is-
import-finance/). The advantages of import financing are importer can obtains
liquidity to pay for imports and receives better conditions for the purchase based on
sight payment. Several types of import finance products are Islamic Letters of Credit
(LC-i), Trade Murabahah Trust Receipt-i (TR-i) and Accepted Bills-i Imports and
Domestic Purchases (AB-i Purchases).

II. Export Financing

Export finance offers a way for businesses especially from overseas transactions to
release working capital that might remain tied up in invoices for long periods of time.
This type of trade finance allows business growing to overseas and also increase the
trade with large foreign multinationals (https://learn.marketinvoice.com/article/what-
is-export-finance/). The advantages of export financing are exporter can gains
competitive edge by offering financing to prospective buyers, receives cash payment
upon shipment or commissioning and avoids credit, interest-rate and currency risks in
the settlement period. For importer, they can use long-term financing to match
expected revenues with expenditures, making cash flow more efficient and obtain
financing that is less expensive than local financing which may be subject to
restrictions. Several types of export financing instruments are Accepted Bills-i
Exports and Domestics Sales (AB-i Sales), Bills of Exchange Purchased-i (BEP-i) and
Export Credit Refinancing-i (ECR-i).

trade finance products namely Al-Kafalah Bank Guarantee (KBG-i), Al-Kafalah
Shipping Guarantee-i (KSG-i) and Cash Line-i.
