Marine Insurance:-
The Marine Insurance Act , 1963, defines marine insurance as follows ; “ A contract of marine
insurance is an agreement whereby the insurer undertakes to indemnify the assured, in the manner and
to the extend thereby agreed, against marine losses, that is to say, losses incidental to marine
adventure.”
Marine insurance falls under commercial insurance. The policy is taken to reduce business risks. It
caters to small scale business organisations to large corporate. Policy does not cover loss or damage
due to wilful misconduct, ordinary leakage, improper packing, delay, war, strike, riot and civil
commotion.
• In case of loss/damage in transit, a monetary claim should be lodged with the carrier within
the time limit to protect recovery rights
• Appointment of surveyor or claim representative in agreement with the insurer to determine
the nature, cause and extent of loss/damage
• The surveyor informs the insurer of the approximate value of loss incurred
• The claim procedure takes from one to three weeks
A Letter of Credit is a payment term generally used for international sales transactions. It is
basically a mechanism, which allows importers/buyers to offer secure terms of payment to
exporters/sellers in which a bank (or more than one bank) gets involved. The technical term
for Letter of credit is 'Documentary Credit' LC (as it is commonly referred to) is a payment
undertaking given by a bank to the seller and is issued on behalf of the applicant i.e. the
buyer. The Buyer is the Applicantand the Seller is the Beneficiary. The Bank that issues the
LC is referred to as the Issuing Bank which is generally in the country of the Buyer. The
Bank that Advises the LC to the Seller is called the Advising Bank which is generally in the
country of the Seller.
The specified bank makes the payment upon the successful presentation of the required
documents by the seller within the specified time frame. The process works both in favor of
both the buyer and the seller. The Seller gets assured that if documents are presented on time
and in the way that they have been requested on the LC the payment will be made and Buyer
on the other hand is assured that the bank will thoroughly examine these presented documents
and ensure that they meet the terms and conditions stipulated in the LC.
The essential characteristic of the Letter of Credit is that it relies on the doctrine of strict
compliance for release of payment to the exporter against the draft(s) drawn by him. The
banks do not deal in goods; they deal in documents. As such, the importer has to specify to
the bank the documents which it should examine as evidence to the effect that the exporter
has sent the shipment in strict compliance with the terms and conditions of the export
contract.

9 Steps in the Letter of Credit Process
Buyer and seller agree to terms including means of transport, period of credit offered (if
any), and latest date of shipment acceptable.
Buyer applies to bank for issue of letter of credit. Bank will evaluate buyer's credit
standing, and may require cash cover and/or reduction of other lending limits.
Issuing bank issues LC, sending it to the Advising bank by airmail or electronic means
such as telex or SWIFT.
Advising bank establishes authenticity of the letter of credit using signature books or test
codes, then informs seller (beneficiary).
Seller should now check that LC matches commercial agreement and that all its terms and
conditions can be satisfied.
Seller ships the goods, then assembles the documents called for in the LC (invoice,
transport document, etc.).
The Advising bank checks the documents against the LC. If the documents are compliant,
the bank pays the seller and forwards the documents to the Issuing bank.
The Issuing bank now checks the documents itself. If they are in order, it reimburses the
seller's bank immediately.
The Issuing bank debits the buyer and releases the documents (including transport
document), so the buyer can claim the goods from the carrier.
3 Most Common Reasons why Letters of Credit Fail
1) Time Lines: The letter of credit should have an expiration date that gives sufficient time to
the seller to get all the tasks specified and the documents required in the LC. If the
letter of credit expires, the seller is left with no protection. Most LC s fail because
Sellers/Exporters/Beneficiaries were unable to perform within the specified time
frame in the LC.
Three dates are of importance in an LC:
a) The date by when shipment should have occurred. The date on the Bill of Lading.
b) The date by when documents have to be presented to the Bank
c) The expiry date of the LC itself.
A good source to give you an idea of the timelines would be your freight forwarding agent.
As a seller check with your freight forwarding agent to see if you would be in a
position to comply.
2) Discrepancy within the Letter of Credit:
Letters of credit could also have discrepancies. Even a discrepancy as small as a missing
period or comma can render the document invalid. Thus, the earlier in the process the
letter of credit is examined, the more time is available to identify and fix the problem.
This is another common reason why LCs fail.
3) Compliance with the Documents and Conditions within the Letter of Credit.
Letters of credit are about documents and not facts; the inability to produce a given document
at the right time will nullify the letter of credit. As a Seller/Exporter/Beneficiary you should
try and run the compliance issues with the various department or individuals involved within
your organization to see if compliance would be a problem. And if so, have the LC amended
before shipping the goods.
Documentation for letter of credit
When making payment for product on behalf of its customer, the issuing bank must verify
that all documents and drafts conform precisely to the terms and conditions of the letter of
credit. Although the credit can require an array of documents, the most common documents
that must accompany the draft include:
Commercial Invoice
The billing for the goods and services. It includes a description of merchandise, price, FOB
origin, and name and address of buyer and seller. The buyer and seller information must
correspond exactly to the description in the letter of credit. Unless the letter of credit
specifically states otherwise, a generic description of the merchandise is usually acceptable in
the other accompanying documents.
Bill of Lading
A document evidencing the receipt of goods for shipment and issued by a freight carrier
engaged in the business of forwarding or transporting goods. The documents evidence control
of goods. They also serve as a receipt for the merchandise shipped and as evidence of the
carrier's obligation to transport the goods to their proper destination.
Warranty of Title
A warranty given by a seller to a buyer of goods that states that the title being conveyed is
good and that the transfer is rightful. This is a method of certifying clear title to product
transfer. It is generally issued to the purchaser and issuing bank expressing an agreement to
indemnify and hold both parties harmless.
Letter of Indemnity
Specifically indemnifies the purchaser against a certain stated circumstance. Indemnification
is generally used to guaranty that shipping documents will be provided in good order when
available.
When a discrepancy is detected by the negotiating bank, a correction to the document may be
allowed if it can be done quickly while remaining in the control of the bank. If time is not a
factor, the exporter should request that the negotiating bank return the documents for
corrections.
If there is not enough time to make corrections, the exporter should request that the
negotiating bank send the documents to the issuing bank on an approval basis or notify the
issuing bank by wire, outline the discrepancies, and request authority to pay. Payment cannot
be made until all parties have agreed to jointly waive the discrepancy.

The EU traces its origins from the European Coal and Steel Community formed among six
countries in 1951 and the Treaty of Rome formed in 1957 by the same states. Since then, it
has grown in size through enlargement, and in power through the addition of policy areas to
its remit. The last amendment to the constitutional basis of the EU came into force in 2009
and was the Lisbon Treaty, by virtue of which the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the
European Union was elevated to legally binding status.[nb 3]
The EU has developed a single market through a standardised system of laws which apply in
all member states, and ensures the free movement of people, goods, services, and capital,
[12]
including the abolition of passport controls by the Schengen Agreement between 22 EU
states and 3 other European states.[13] It enacts legislation in justice and home affairs, and
maintains common policies on trade,[14] agriculture,[15] fisheries and regional development.

Sixteen member states have adopted a common currency, the euro, constituting
the eurozone.
The EURO , the common currency of the European Union, was launched by 11of the 15
members of the union, on Jan1, 1999.
The exchange rates per euro determined at the time of Euro launch were about US $ 1.17.
One Euro is equivalent to about Rs. 65.
The European Council gives direction to the EU, and convenes at least four times a year. It
comprises the President of the European Council, the President of the European
Commission and one representative per member state; either its head of state or head of
government. The European Council has been described by some as the Union's "supreme
political authority.
