International Trade Finance & Bank Instruments
Need an LC, bank guarantee or other trade instrument for a cross-border transaction?
Beyond the Africa Trade Gateway's Assignment of Proceeds structure, Epiidosis coordinates the broader suite of bank-issued and bank-advised trade instruments that underpin cross-border commerce — issuance, advising, confirmation coordination, and reassignment — executed through UAE and correspondent banking partners.
- Issuance and advising coordination for Documentary Letters of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit
- Bank Guarantees, including performance, bid, and advance payment guarantees
- Documentary Collections and Bills of Exchange handling for trade settlement
- Correspondent banking coordination for cross-border settlement and confirmation
- Complements the Africa Trade Gateway for traders requiring a broader instrument mix
Indicative parameters only. Actual terms are subject to assessment, documentation and the relevant financing institution's approval.
You don't need a complete package to start. Submit the basic transaction details first — we'll tell you what additional documents are required.
Is this suitable for you?
This may be suitable if you have:
- Cross-border trade transaction requiring a documentary instrument
- Established counterparty and underlying commercial contract
- Import/export finance, performance bond or advance payment guarantee need
- Transaction able to pass KYC/AML and sanctions screening
- Instrument value consistent with correspondent banking capacity
Final eligibility depends on transaction assessment and the relevant financing institution.
