One of the major factors affecting exports is payment risk. Dele emphasized in a video the importance of addressing payment risk in international trade, a concern that often plagues importers and exporters, especially in the export business.
He underscored the significance of a letter of credit as a pivotal trade finance instrument, highlighting its role in mitigating payment risk and the variant called the “confirmed letter of credit,”.

Dele defined a letter of credit as “an undertaking of the buyer’s Bank given to the seller, which gives assurance of payment when the shipment is made, and documents are presented that confirm to the terms and condition of letter of credit.”
He further explained certain countries are exposed to political and economic risks, prompting the need for additional security in trade transactions. In such cases, a confirmed letter of credit from a third-party country is a safeguard.
For instance, if you’re exporting goods to Venezuela, the Venezuelan bank issues an LC to you as the exporter, but they initially send this LC to Citibank in New York. Citibank in New York forwards the LC to your bank, ensuring a reliable trade process.
“Confirmation involves another bank, otherwise called the confirming Bank in another country giving additional undertaking plus the undertaking of the import Bank.”
