✅ CONFIRMED CREDIT
US Capital Private Bank Knowledge Base
📖 What is a Confirmed Credit?
A Confirmed Credit is a type of letter of credit where the payment obligation of the issuing bank is guaranteed or backed by a second bank, known as the confirming bank. This additional guarantee provides extra security to the beneficiary that payment will be made.
⚙️ Key Features of Confirmed Credit
-
Issued by the issuing bank at the request of the buyer (applicant).
-
Confirmed by a second bank (usually in the beneficiary’s country) that adds its own commitment to pay.
-
The beneficiary can demand payment from either the issuing or confirming bank.
-
Protects the beneficiary against risks such as the issuing bank’s insolvency or political issues in the issuing bank’s country.
