Documentary Collections
1 The discussion begins by looking at how the seller and buyer might manage both
payment and delivery risk in an international sale. The risk that the buyer will fast to pay is called
the seller's payment risk. The risk that the buyer will fail to receive the goods is called the
buyer's delivery risk. The buyer will want assurance that the goods will be shipped on time,
properly packaged, and adequately insured. The seller would want to ship goods overseas and
place them into the hands of a foreign buyer with some assurance of payment. Once the goods leave
the seller's control, any remedies to recover from the buyer can be costly and time-consuming.
2 The documentary collection is the process by which banking institutions serve as
intermediaries between the seller and buyer to handle the exchange of the bill of lading for payment.
The documentary collection is an integral part of the documentary sale. It provides a safer
alternative for payment than either cash in advance or sales on open account. The parties might
indicate their desire for a documentary collection by specifying in the contract that payment
terms are "cash against documents" or "documents against payment".Such an indication is not
always essential because the collection process is implied in most documentary sales contracts.
A bill of lading is a document of title issude by a carrier to a shipper upon receiving
goods for transport.Having first been used in the sixteenth century, the bill of lading has played a
vital role in international trade. It serves duee purposes:
(1) A receipt for the goods from the carrier, indicating any damage to the goods that was visible
at the, time of loading.
(2) The contract of carriage between the shipper and the carrier.
(3) The document of title to the goods described in it.
