Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved UCP600产生的背景及过程 UCP600修订的背景 自UCP500生效以来,银行实务中围绕500产生的争议层出不穷*。为此,ICC于2002年初成立UCP修订工作小组,提出修订UCP500的动议。 国际商会有关UCP500的系列出版物 Position Paper No.1,2,3,4 (修改/议付/非单据化条件/运输单据) Publication No.515/535/565/596 URR525/ISP98/ISBP/Eucp *国际商会银行技术委员会遗憾而且关切地注意到,在UCP500实施以后,一些银行错误地解释和应用UCP500的一些条文。由于未能正确地运用这些条文,其结果严重防碍了按照UCP500开立的跟单信用证的使用。(Charles del Bush—Chairman, ICC Commission on Banking Technique and Practice.

Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved UCP600产生的背景及过程 在2002年4月的ICC银行委员会会议上,各国代表对何时、如何修订UCP500未达成一致意见(我国赞成立即开始修订),但一致同意先对产生最多争议的七个条款进行评议。因为ICC提出的专家意见中超过58%集中在UCP500这七个条款上。 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved

Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved UCP600产生的背景及过程 From Introduction of UCP500:单据不符是信用证支付方式下一种极为普遍的现象,从1993年修订的《跟单信用证统一惯例》的前言可以看出:“一些调查表明,大约5%跟单信用证下的单据因与信用证不符或表面不符而被拒收,这降低了跟单信用证的效力,对参与有关产品交易的各方产生财务影响,增加了成本,减少了进口商、出口商和银行的利润。有关跟单信用证的诉讼案激增也引起了人们极大的关注。” 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved
Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved UCP600产生的背景及过程 From Introduction of UCP600:When work on the revision started, a number of global surveys indicated that, because of discrepancies, approximately 70% of documents presented under letters of credit were being rejected on first presentation. This obviously had, and continues to have, a negative effect on the letter of credit being seen as a means of payment and, if unchecked, could have serious implications for maintaining or increasing its market share as a recognized means of settlement in international trade. 结论:信用证正日益成为拒付的工具。 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved

As to the former ( available through payment),any recourse by the advising bank vis-à-vis the beneficiary was to be excluded if it had not expressed a reservation when making its payment. As to the latter credits ( available through negotiation), the advising bank always had a right of recourse, unless it had confirmed the credit.) 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved

Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 11月9日,嘉陵公司向R银行提交主证项下全套单据,金额为USD1,401,495.42,期限为85 days sight,并指示R银行:“Please negotiate the above bill and pay our import bill under your L/C No. ILC90512 favouring Shin Yang Trading Sdn., Bhd. for USD1,316,404.63” 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved

Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 拒付 11月15日,A银行收到R银行提交的单据 11月22日, A银行发出拒付,理由:产地证系由受益人出具、经当地商会加签的,并非信用证中要求的由当地商会出具。同时声明:“保留单据听候处理,一旦申请人接受不符点即放单,除非在此之前收到相反的指示。” 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved
Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 中止付款 11月23日, A银行收到法院的《协助执行通知书》,以受益人嘉陵公司提交的不是主证项下的单据涉嫌欺诈为由,要求A银行: 查封、扣押LCXXXX152/99信用证项下所有单据 停止支付LCXXXX152/99信用证项下款项 A银行当日将该情况通知R银行 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved
Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 交涉 11月24日,R银行致电A银行,称其所递交的单据已符合信用证条款,同时声明:作为议付行,即使在发生欺诈的情况下,也有权要求A银行偿付 A银行以如下理由坚持拒付: 不符点成立; 否认R银行的议付行地位,认为其只是履行背对背信用证项下义务而已 凭法院的止付令 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved
Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 1999年11月19日,R银行于支付给渣打银行的款项只是履行了其第ILC90512号背靠背信用证项下的付款义务 R银行向A银行提交单据的行为应认定为委托寄单索汇,也就是说,R银行所处的地位只是托收行。因此,止付裁定并未损害R银行作为托收银行的相关利益 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved

Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 判决 A银行所提的不符点不成立,且拒付通知也不符合UCP500第14条的规定 R银行的议付行地位不成立,其只能作为嘉陵公司的委托寄单行,因此,R银行无权向A银行主张要求获得赔偿的权利 R银行没有对单据做无追索的买断,尽管R银行在其1999年11月12日的面函中声称其已议付该单据,但实际上当天并未发生任何支付行为 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved
Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved R银行于1999年11月19日向其背靠背信用证受益人所支付的金额为USD1,316,344.63的款项只是解除了其背靠背信用证项下自身的付款责任,并不是对主证项下单据的议付行为。因为,R银行并未对主证项下单据向嘉陵公司做出扣除银行费用、融资利息后的全额款项,即USD1,401,495.42 R银行并未向嘉陵公司的帐户支付任何款项,而金额为USD1,316,344.63的款项并未先贷记嘉陵公司的帐户,而是直接用于支付背靠背信用证项下的支款 金额为USD1,316,344.63的融资,R银行是作为进口融资而不是出口融资记录在册的 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved

Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved 对UCP600的整体评价 优点: 第一次系统地对信用证有关概念进行了定义。 删除了那些表达不确切、内容已过时及与国际贸易实务相脱节的条款。 确立了新的国际结算实务操作标准。 增加了实务操作性条款。 措辞更为简洁、严格、清晰、与时俱进。 缺点: 没有解决目前实务中遇到的所有问题。 UCP600与URR525、ISBP、ISP98、eUCP并行,操作难度加大。 建议: 做好内部培训和客户培训,保证UCP500到UCP600的顺利过渡。 梳理银行内部现有规章制度和法律文本,进行必要的修订和调整。 对现有国际业务系统进行必要的调整和升级。 2019/1/1 Yuqiang @ Copyright Reserved
