 MONETIZATION OF BANK GUARANTEES

MONETIZATION OF BANK GUARANTEES

Economic Consultants are experts in the Monetization of Bank Guarantees (BG) and other Financial
Instruments. We have direct relationships with proven Issuers and Monetizers who offer a complete
range of both Recourse and Non Recourse Programs.

Bank Guarantees (BG’s) and Stand By Letters of Credit (SBLC’s) can be Monetized for:

Cash
Placed into Trade Programs (PPP Private Placement Programs)
or a Hybrid of Immediate Cash and funds in a Trade Program.

BG’s and SBLC’s that can be Monetized include:

Top 25 Bank BG and SBLC

Rated and Unrated banks
Instruments with a Value OVER 5 Million Dollars
BG & SBLC MUST have at least 10 months prior to expiry

Monetization typically takes 10 days and returns are between 50% and 90% Non Recourse,
depending on the BG and SBLC Type.

MONETIZING BANK GUARANTEES

When Monetizing Bank Guarantees it is CRITICAL you get this right, there are some big traps
uninformed customers fall into that cost them a lot of money or the whole deal. Work with Economic
Consultants and we can help you avoid these nasty pitfalls and get your BG issued and monetized
seamlessly.

PLEASE READ AND AVOID THE FOLLOWING;

Mistake 1:
Buying a BG that is Neutered - Some sneaky companies issue neutered BG’s. That is a BG that can
only be used for credit enhancement on a company’s books but can never be monetized or traded. It
is a nasty surprise you get when you realise your pristine BG delivered by MT760 to a Monetizer is
useless!

Mistake 2:
Buying a BG that is Leased – Leased BG’s cannot be monetized, they are banned industry wide. If you
buy a BG that is Leased or has the word “leased” on it. You have a worthless piece of paper you
cannot use! We offer you “unrestricted beneficiary ownership of the BG for a 12 month term” this
gives you full monetization capability at the price of a lease.

Mistake 3:
Procedures DO NOT Match – If the delivery procedures of the BG issuer do not exactly match with
the BG Monetizer you will never get the BG delivered because the two parties are incompatible with
each other. Both parties end up blaming one another and no deal ever gets done.

Mistake 4:
The No Bank Play – When your BG issuers contract with you includes them sending a MT999 or
MT799 from a non bank entity to the monetizer’s bank entity. You have been screwed. Banks will
not reply or communicate with Non Banks or private companies. Therefore a message sent from a
non bank to a bank is ignored! The issuer then claims they delivered service and keeps your money
and the Monetizer claims you never communicated with them on a bank to bank basis.

Mistake 5:
No CUSIP or ISIN Number – Some Monetizers will only accept Bank Guarantees with CUSIP or ISIN
Numbers. This means they will NOT accept a fresh cut bank guarantee, ONLY seasoned instruments.
Seasoned BG’s cost more and generally are only available to be purchased from secondary owners
not banks.

Unfortunately there are several other BIG MISTAKES clients fall into that ARE NOT mentioned
here!
The value of working with Economic Consultants is you get our expertise for FREE and that is
invaluable when you want to complete a drama free, successful transaction. If you are not a financial
instruments expert, use one!

publicly tradable instrument. Bank guarantees are not trading securities, trading debt instruments, or
trading investment funds. There is no public market for the trading of bank guarantees. For more
