Bridge the time between shipping goods and receiving payment

A banker’s acceptance is a variation of a certified check, payable at a future maturity date. They have a variety of uses in financing the sale of goods. For example, acceptances can be used to sell receivables to a bank or to obtain financing of goods held in inventory. Bankers' acceptances can be created in conjunction with transactions involving:

  • Letters of credit
  • Documentary draft collections
  • Open account sales
