Vincent O’Brien Tackles another UCP query … ‘The Seven Year Itch’ Doc. Credit
Thursday, 04 March 2010 12:48
Q 2010/01 - We have had a high value standby LC on our books for approximately 7 years. It was originally issued subject to UCP 500 then amended to UCP 600. The standby is an evergreen in structure in that should we as issuing bank not issue an instruction limiting the expiry date, then the standby automatically extends for a further period of 12 calendar months. The Standby covers performance under a major commercial property development in the Middle East. Given the increased turbulence in the financial markets our bank decided to reduce our ongoing exposure and issued the instruction referenced in the original standby limiting the exposure to the currently valid expiry date. On the day the credit was to expire, our bank received a fax transmission of the one document called for in the standby ‘signed statement of default’ before close of our banking hours.

After more than two decades of isolation, the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Great Jamahiriya (Libya) is making an impressive comeback to international business. This has been due to its shedding of the status of ‘pariah’, cautious liberalisation of internal economic policies, until recently a seven-year period of increasing oil prices, as well as having succeeded in drawing a significant amount of foreign investment and global trade connections.

irealndDublin, Ireland
Whatever way you look at it, Ireland is dependent on Export business to bring recover to the economy and continue development. According to Vincent O’Brien, Director of electronic learning specialists, eBSI Export Academy, ‘The Celtic Tiger got fat and lethargic during the boom times - To survive and prosper in the international business jungle the Tiger must be fit. To get fit training is required, and the training needs to be tough, practical, task oriented, flexible and empowering but in the end deliver tangible added value.

Testimonials

  • testipopovI am really glad I have successfully completed the course. It was very useful for me indeed - the fact I was undergoing a western international trade course helped me to find a better job at an innovative IT company already in the process of study. The marketing and e-commerce modules provided me with the relevant guidance for my every day activities in the new position and the comments from the tutors have been very useful, too. And certainly I enjoyed the friendly and student-oriented atmosphere of the online school.

  • testBurhanakhlaqIts been a real pleasure studying under your support. I must acknowledge one thing, which I have experienced while I studied. You have been tremendous support. It never happened a single time, when I requested something from you and you did not respond within 24 hours. It may look very easy, but actually a person who knows operations or customer support can identify it as an orchestrated effort which require high quality management skill and high level of commitment. I am sure that even though my ITS programme ends up here, we will remain part of EBSI alumni network and team for ever. Thank you for every support and cooperation you provided to us during this programme.
