45 Banker s Acceptances (BA s) What is a BA?: A time draft drawn under a LC on a bank which the bank has accepted. BA may be held and paid at maturity or discounted. Tenor or time is usually 30 to 180 days. Benefits: Provides extended terms to the buyer. Market penetration. Makes the seller more competitive. By discounting, seller may be paid immediately upon acceptance. Can provide to buyer lower interest rates.
46 Banker s Acceptances (BA s) EXAMPLE: AN EXPORTER RECEIVES A LETTER OF CREDIT FOR $100,000 OPENED BY HIS FOREIGN BUYER S BANK WITH THE TERMS OF THE DRAFT BEING 90 DAYS SIGHT. LC IS CONFIRMED BY SELLER S BANK IN THE U.S. WHEN DOCUMENTS ARE PRESENTED AND ARE FOUND TO BE IN ORDER, THE BANK ACCEPTS THE DRAFT AND SETS THE MATURITY DATE. THE ACCEPTED DRAFT IS NOW A BA AND REPRESENTS THE BANK S PROMISE TO PAY AT MATURITY. THE SELLER HAS TWO CHOICES. HE CAN WAIT 90 DAYS AND BE PAID $100,000 OR HE CAN DISCOUNT THE BA AND BE PAID IMMEDIATELY LESS THE DISCOUNT CHARGE. IN THE EXAMPLE ASSUME THE 90 DAY BA RATE IS 2.6%. $100,000 X.026 DIVIDED BY 360 DAYS TIMES 90 DAYS EQUALS $650 FOR THE INTEREST/DISCOUNT CHARGE. IF THE EXPORTER CHOOSES TO DISCOUNT THE BA HE WOULD RECEIVE $99,350 ($100,000 - $650) IF THE LC STATED THAT THE DISCOUNT CHARGES WERE FOR THE BUYER S ACCOUNT, THEN THE EXPORTER WOULD RECEIVE THE FULL $100,000 AND WHEN THE BUYER PAYS HIS BANK HE WOULD BE CHARGED $100,650. IN ESSENCETHE BUYER HAS NOW BORROWED MONEY IN THE U.S. AND RECEIVED A RATE BETTER THAN HE COULD GET DIRECTLY FROM HIS OWN BANK.
