Letter of credit
Letter of credit (LC) is a foreign trade method in which payment is guaranteed by the bank after the goods are shipped from the export country, provided that the conditions determined between the buyer and the seller (goods type, quantity, delivery time, payment method, etc.) are complied with. It is a payment method that provides a high level of security for both buyers and sellers. From the buyer's perspective, letters of credit (LCs) provide a letter of credit guarantee that ensures payment is made only for goods that comply with the contract terms, are shipped on time, and meet the credit requirements. From the seller's perspective, LC offer a secure collection method as payment is guaranteed by the bank only if the terms of the LC are fulfilled.
