BG – Bank Guarantee explained by Geordon Saraveloz

Geordon Saraveloz January 1, 2021 0 Comments

A bank guarantee is a type of financial backstop offered by a lending institution. The bank guarantee means that the lender will ensure that the liabilities of a debtor will be met. In other words, if the debtor fails to settle a debt, the bank will cover it.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
• A bank guarantee is when a lending institution promises to cover a loss if a borrower defaults on a loan.
• Parties to a loan choose direct guarantees for international and cross-border transactions.
• The guarantee provides additional risk to the lender, so loans with such a guarantee will come with greater costs or interest rates.
