Legal

The laws that apply to a guarantee can be a very complex factor. Usually all guarantees issued in South Africa will be subject to South African law. If it is a cross-border guarantee and another bank is involved, then the laws of South Africa will apply to the counter-guarantee and the laws of the foreign country to the primary guarantee.

Guarantees

Written undertakings

These are written undertakings by an institution on behalf of a party for payment on presentation of a written demand, stating that the party has defaulted in terms of their contract.

What this is
Call me back

What this is

Performance

Guarantees are used to back up performance by an exporter or a contractor. There are many types of guarantees that fulfill different functions.



Trust

You should have total trust that the beneficiary will not make abusive demands.



Applicant risk

These are high risk instruments for the applicant as payment takes place on pure demand and no proof of default is required.



Beneficiary risk

If you are the beneficiary, then the only risk you have is the ability of the issuing bank to pay, and if it is a cross-border guarantee, also the country risk of the issuing bank.



What's hot

Business benefits

How guarantees can benefit your business.

Security

Provide security for performance



Risk

Reduce risk



Assurance

Give assurance of the serious intent and business standing of the party whose obligations are underwritten



What it costs

What it costs

Determine your fee structure

  • The main cost under a guarantee is the establishment fee, which is usually charged for every 6 months or part thereof.
  • It is standard international practice for the applicant party to pay all the costs. So if another cross-border bank is involved, then the applicant party also pays the other bank's costs.
  • Guarantees are expensive instruments, mainly due to the high risk factor attached to it by the financial authorities.
  • There will also be amendment costs, if applicable.

Documents needed

  • If your business does not already enjoy credit facilities with the bank, you need to approach your Relationship Manager for a limit to be marked. You also need to complete an application form and provide the proposed wording of the guarantee to the bank for approval.
  • If it is the first time that you want to issue a guarantee, you need to complete a General Indemnity for Guarantees; this indemnity will cover all guarantees to be issued by the bank on behalf of your business.
