Letters of Credit International Payment SeminarAs an exporter you need to know in advance that you will get paid on a specified date, so that you can predict cashflow accurately. Using Letters of Credit gives you the assurance of guaranteed payments - providing all the terms and conditions cited in the Letter of Credit are met. This seminar is a must for those who need to acquire more knowledge on International Payments and Letters of Credit. International division sponsor Royal Bank of Scotland says: "Given the increased desire to mitigate risk and uncertainty in international business it's important that you're aware of all the tools at your disposal to ensure your transactions run smoothly and ultimately that you get paid. "International Trade can appear complex to the uninitiated but following our short presentation we will show you how a bank can assist you in putting what you have learned today into practice." The workshop takes place at the Chamber offices on Thursday 16th July 2009 from 9.00am until 1.00pm.
