SAMPLE SCREEN SHOTS FROM THE

ISBP TRAINING MODULE
International Standard Banking

Practice ICC Publication 745
A selection of screens from

the 12 segments of the ISBP
module.
Foreword
The screens that follow are a sample taken from an ISBP module that forms part of an extensive training suite covering
basic, intermediary and advanced elements of Trade Finance that is being established. These modules will be available to
anyone who wishes to learn more about Trade Finance. Whether involved in Operations, Sales or Product Management,
students will gain benefit from the content. The modules will also represent an invaluable aid to companies that import or
export, and logistics companies alike.
The ISBP online training consists of a suite of 12 training modules covering each section of ICC Publication 745 (there are
2 modules covering the General Principles section).
The training environment is both structured and comprehensive. Users may track their progress as they work through the
course and return, at any time, to a previous position. Each suite of modules will have an associated assessment to
determine the level of knowledge that has been achieved. A minimum pass mark, and the number of times an
assessment may be taken, can be set for each group of students that have been selected by their bank or company to
undertake the training. A certificate will be issued once the assessment process is concluded. CDCS PDUs have been
requested for the training. We expect 10-12 for this ISBP module.
These screens provide samples of the training material for indication purposes only. Each module concludes with a
summary of the key issues that have been covered. Each module is between 23 and 43 screens (most with 30+).
This training suite is jointly developed by Gary Collyer (Collyer Consulting) and David Meynell (TradeLC Advisory)
Introduction
(taken from General Principles module covering A1-A20)
Knowledge of, and adherence to, the General Principles enshrined in ISBP 745 will not only greatly increase
global understanding of the correct application of UCP 600 but also help to avoid common and repetitive
problems associated with document preparation and examination.
Whilst the various document sections provide specific details of the practices that apply to those documents,
the General Principles section refers to practices that cover a wide range of documentary issues and one or
more will be applicable to most presentations under letters of credit.
Learning objectives:
- recognise the impact of using virgules and commas when describing certain key features in a letter of credit
when no context is given to their use;
- understand when corrections and alterations require authentication and by whom;
- understand the examination requirements for copy transport documents and transport documents not
covered by UCP 600 articles 19-25; and
- be able to articulate (i) the signing requirements for documents; (ii) when a document is to be dated and (iii)
the requirements for determining an original document.
Paragraph A2
Treatment of Virgules and Commas
Virgules (a slash mark) and commas are

commonly seen in letters of credit when describing
optional places of receipt or delivery; ports of
loading or discharge; or airports of departure or
destination. They are also seen with regard to
details given in respect of the origin of the goods,
or their colour, type or components.

FELIXSTOWE

As can be seen in the extracts opposite, the use of

both a virgule and a comma have been given a
similar interpretation. Use of either, in the
circumstances described above, and without any
context being expressed in the letter of credit, will
allow a beneficiary the option of using any one or
more of the alternatives that are stated, and not
necessarily all of them.

It is advisable for an applicant or issuing bank to be specific when only one of

the options is to be used i.e., by the use of or between each of the
alternatives, rather than the use of a virgule or comma.
Paragraph A19
Definition of shipping company
Nowhere in UCP 600 is there any reference to

shipping company, yet in a large number of
letters of credit you will regularly see a
documentary requirement such as Shipping
company certificate stating ........
As UCP 600 only refers to a carrier, master, owner,
charterer or any of their agents, in the context of
the entities that may issue or sign transport
documents, who would be the intended issuer or
signing entity for such a document?
ISBP 745 paragraph A19 (f) provides the answer
and the options are shown opposite.
46A: Documents Required

Paragraph A35
Signatures by electronic means
Documents may be signed electronically.
However, care should be taken in how such
signature should be applied and accepted.

Paragraph B2
Establishing the tenor of a draft
When transhipment has occurred, it can be the

case that a document such as a bill of lading will
indicate two on board notations. The first in
respect of loading at a specific port of loading
named in a credit, or at a port within a
geographical area or range of ports as indicated in
a credit. The second will be in relation to the
reloading at the port of transhipment. Banks are
only concerned with an on board notation in
respect of shipment that occurs from the port of
loading as described in the credit.
When a credit requires shipment from a
geographical area or range of ports, transhipment
could occur at ports within the same area or range.
In this case, either date appearing in an on board
notation can be used for the calculation of the
maturity date. Logic will dictate, however, that the
earliest date will be used as this will provide an
earlier maturity date for the beneficiary.

Paragraph C3
Goods description to correspond
It is a requirement of UCP 600 sub-article 18 (c)

that a description of the goods, services or
performance appearing in an invoice is to
correspond with that shown in the credit.

CIF DUBAI INCOTERMS 2010
ICC Opinion R584 (TA564rev) indicates that there

is no requirement for a mirror image.
The description of the goods, services or
performance need not be restricted to one area of
an invoice. Provided that the data collectively
corresponds with that in the credit, the description
will comply.
In the extract opposite, the main

goods description and the references
to the order number and to the trade
term are separate, but collectively
comply with the description in the
credit.
Paragraph C8
Evidence of trade term
A goods description in a credit will very often

include a trade term as an integral part of its
wording. In such circumstances, the invoice is to
reflect that trade term.
Furthermore, when the goods description in a
credit also indicates the source of that trade term
i.e., Incoterms 2010, this must be accurately
reflected in the invoice.

A transport document need not necessarily be

titled multimodal transport document or
combined transport document as long as the
document fulfils the required functionality. This is
the case even when a credit provides the title of
the required document.
When goods are to be shipped by more than one
mode of transport, a credit should indicate such
routing by the completion of either fields 44A
and B; or 44A, E, F and B; or 44A, E and F; or
44E, F and B of an MT700.
When only fields 44E and F are completed, such
fields should indicate the location of a port or

should not be the required transport document

Paragraphs D24-D25
Clean transport documents
A multimodal transport document is not to include

wording that expressly declares a defective
condition of the goods or their packaging.
Even when a credit includes a condition for a

multimodal transport document to be marked
clean on board or clean, there is no necessity
for the word clean to actually appear on the
document.
Deletion of the word clean on a multimodal
transport document does not expressly declare a
defective condition of the goods or their
packaging.
The extract at the top contains a clause
indicating a defective condition of part of the
packaging. The one at the bottom, whilst stating
that the packaging may not be sufficient for the
carriage, does not declare a defective condition
at the time of receipt of the cargo.

Paragraph E5
Signing by a branch of a carrier
When a bill of lading is signed by a named branch of the carrier, the signature is considered to have been
made by the carrier.
See ICC Opinions R752 (TA748) and R754 (TA750rev)
A bill of lading will normally be signed by the carrier, the master, or an agent that is acting for or on
their behalf. However, a recent trend, adopted by a couple of carriers, has seen the introduction of
the concept of signing by a branch of the carrier. This manner of signing is the subject of the two
referenced ICC Opinions. In the respective conclusions, it was decided that a branch signing on
behalf of an office located in the country of domicile of the carrier would be the equivalent of the
carrier itself signing the document.

For PRIME INSPECTION COMPANY

Charles Atlas
An inspection, analysis, health, etc. certificate is an important document for an applicant. It provides data
relating to the goods prior to their shipment and may be enforceable against the issuer in the event of
dispute. However, it is often the case that a credit will not indicate the level of inspection or analysis that
is to be carried out or the standards against which the goods are to be assessed. Issuing banks and
applicants would be well advised to insert specific information relative to the data that is expected to
appear in a presented certificate.
