International Standard Banking Practice For the Examination of Documents Under Documentary Credits

ISBP
ICC Publication No. 681, 2007 Edition
Figures show that more than 50% of credits are rejected for discrepancies on
first presentation. The new ISBP, by encouraging a uniformity of practice
worldwide, should reduce that figure dramatically and, by doing so, facilitate
the flow of world trade.
ISBP was conceived as an intelligent checklist of procedures for document
checkers to follow in examining the documents presented under letters of credit.
While not a substitute for the UCP, which remains the guiding text, the ISBP
demonstrates how the UCP is to be integrated into day-to-day practice.

Commentary on UCP 680
Article-by-Article Analysis by the UCP 600 Drafting Group
ICC Publication No. 680, 2007 EditionThe International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has established rules on documentary
credits worldwide for more than 70 years. UCP 600, the latest version of ICC’s
universally used rules on documentary credits, came into effect on July 1, 2007.
Members of the Drafting Group that developed the new UCP have produced an
article-by-article Commentary on the rules. Commentary on UCP 600, which
reflects the Group’s personal views*, explains their rationale behind the
changes in the rules and clarifies the general principles that underlie them.
It frankly addresses the contentious issues in the new rules, among them:
- the term “on their face” and why it was dropped in all but one UCP article;
- the removal of the words “reasonable time”;
- the language allowing discounting of deferred payment credits; and
- the new article on “Definitions”, containing terms such as “honour” and
“negotiation”.
On these and other key points, Commentary on UCP 600 provides an invaluable
insight into the thinking of those who drafted the new UCP.
Practical, compact and easy-to read, Commentary on UCP 600 will be a reference
book of choice for students and users of the new UCP.
